Details about the project

Classical is Magical is a project that was initiated by the 'George Enescu' Philharmonic and Clock Advertising in November 2010. Within the 2011-2012 current season, the project is being continued solely by the 'George Enescu' Philharmonic. Classical is Magical is the amplest step taken into classical music education, dedicated to children and teenagers, in which both professional and amateur musicians are involved. Joining them on the stage are the future musicians, today's students of the National University of Music in Bucharest.

The project Classical is Magical is a premiere in Romania. The great cultural music institutions of the world have been unrolling for years similar educational programmes in cities such as Vienna, Paris, Munich, Hamburg, London, Prague, Budapest, New York. The objective of the second season of this project (2011-2012) is to yet again bring back over ten thousand children and teenagers to be present in the Great Hall of the Romanian Athenaeum, thus facilitating their access to classical music education.

We are joined in this project by: the National University of Music in Bucharest, the Ministry of Culture and National Patrimony, the Ministry of Education, Mark Twain International School, Humanitas Publishing House. Media partners: Liternet, Sapte Seri.
