Catching Cultures Orchestra
Catching Cultures Orchestra (CCO) is an Utrecht-based organization of committed musicians with diverse cultural backgrounds, in particular newcomers, who create high-quality intercultural musical offerings for a diverse audience. CCO performs in varying ensembles and regularly collaborates with various guest musicians and music-related organizations. As a result, CCO knows how to surprise and move their audience time and time again.
Expect a surprising performance in which various cultures and sounds meet, with new compositions by Olupemi Oludare (NGA), Dirge Seçil Kuran (TUR) and Elizabete Beāte Rudzinska (LVA).
Catching Cultures Orchestra will perform a number of compositions commissioned by Gaudeamus. Since 1945, Gaudeamus has presented, stimulated and supported unheard harmonies by up-and-coming performers. Curious music lovers can get acquainted with the (composed) music of tomorrow: unheard combinations of genres, fresh perspectives on concert performance and radical new inventions in the field of sound and stage art, without boundaries or earmuffs.
