I come to you (…) so that you don’t make a black night of a white day

Papusza, Gypsy poet





A concert as a journey, a travel, a path from city to city, from meeting to meeting, from song to song. Passing through diverse musical landscapes we aim to build a map of different countries, different cities and different people, drawing from the tradition of polyphonic singing, travelling Roma music and materials gathered by Jubilo Ensemble members in cultural expeditions to various European countries. The harmonies we create in the space will be symbolically and physically expressed by theatrical actions and performative elements, enriching the musical dramaturgy and leading us towards the next step of HIDDEN CITIES – the creation of a performance.

Project partners: The Grotowski Institute, MiserArt – Strefa Kultury w Labiryncie Wykluczenia, Zakład Karny Nr 1 in Wrocław

Financed by the Ministry of Culture in the Accessible Culture programme.
