May 18, 18 Movies ArtEZ students are longing for the outside

18 students of the master of music of the ArtEZ conservatoire have been spending their time inside for the last 60 days. They are longing for freedom in the fresh air. Performing, making music together and giving their concerts. With the project - May 18, 18 Movies - they give in short movies a unique impression in the world of the conservatoire student, form their own homes. The release of the movies is May 18.

Together with Zwolse Theaters and Theater De Vrijhof in Enschede they want to share their longing for the normal world. Coached by their teachers they have been searching for a creative substitution of the scheduled concerts. Performing for an audience is the most important goal of their studies. With these videos they have been able to replace a part of that vocation.

18 students with various instruments bring new life to mainly classical repertoire and give shape with to the situation of a musician in this corona era with sound and moving image.

The movies will be released at Monday May 18 on the Vrijhof Facebook page, the YouTube channel of ArtEZ university of the Arts, and the Facebook page of Zwolse Theaters.
