Since 2004, »The International Youth in Concert« has aimed to encourage European and Japanese young people to share their daily musical activities, learn about different cultures from each other, and develop strong ties beyond national boundaries through programmes such as workshops, concerts, visiting local schools and institutions, and interacting with a host family. International Youth in Concert is more and more connected with European Capitals of Culture. The last Concert was held in September 2011 under the auspices of the European Capital of Culture Tallinn 2011 and Turku 2011. In October this year, 28 young musicians from Japan, aged from 17 to 30, will visit Maribor 2012. They will practice and perform together with the “European Capital of Culture Choire” and other choirs from Maribor. The aim of the programme is to give the opportunity to young people to be inspired by different cultures and to see music, their lives and culture from a new point of view. In this way we encourage the deepening of ties between countries through music, and a continuing contribution to raising the children who will be responsible for the future.
