Together with LUDWIG, the young singers of National Choirs will give a heartwarming concert. The program will include traditionals, works by Debussy, Ravel, Dvorák, Schubert and many others. Two days before Mother's Day, this concert is intended primarily as a tribute to all mothers and caregivers, with music from all over the world about love, spring, sorrow and joy. Listen to a lullaby from Ukraine, a Norwegian call to the sun to return, a soothing song from Germany, love songs from Italy and France and joyful folk songs from Spain and Korea.
Let's celebrate our love for the most important woman in our lives!

The National Choirs consist of National Children's Choir, National Women's Youth Choir, National Men's Youth Choir, National Mixed Youth Choir and National Boys' Choir, with the participation of mezzo-soprano Sophia Faltas.
