MIAGI Orchestra tour 2024 in planning

 

As a result of six successful international MIAGI tours over the past eight years, our orchestra was invited back on an extensive tour in July/August 2024.  invitations have been extended by some of the most prestigious venues, concert halls and music festivals in Europe such as the Schleswig Holstein Musik Festival - Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam and the Young Euro Classic Festival - Konzerthaus Berlin.

The documentary ‘An unfinished Symphony’ about the MIAGI orchestra in the context of the legacy of Nelson Mandela, by Academy Award winner, Orlando Von Einsiedel. The film was made in collaboration between The Nobel Prize and National Geographic and premiered by The Nobel Prize and National Geographic in May 2020

 

 

The harmony with which the members of MIAGI Orchestra embrace their contrasting origins and background, playing together with a warmth of spirit that is infectious and inspiring, is a microcosm of Mandela’s dream and the South African ‘rainbow’ nation.

Video: In October 2016 we produced two full evening shows for ASEA Brown Boveri (ABB) celebrating 'ABB 125 Years' festivities in Zürich. The invaluable, positive impact of a multi-ethnic group of 90 South African youths performing together at highest level was evident.
