European Atelier success stories: Shared sounds born!

"When I wrote down the idea for a music festival to be presented at the first European Atelier for Young Festival Managers in Görlitz, I never never thought that this could be realised. And when Hugo de Greef said to me on the last day: “Promise, Sophie, you’ll make your festival”, I answered “Yes” but withouth believing that I would do." A wonderful success story shared with us by Sophie Schricker, Festival Director of Shared Sounds - www.sharedsounds.de - a festival idea that was born from the first edition of the European Atelier for Young Festival Managers in Goerlitz in 2006. Shared Sounds will take place from June 12-15 at RADIALSYSTEM V in Berlin featuring European musicians from Jazz, Folk and contemporary classical music in concerts, workshops and talks. The programme can be downloaded from the website at www.sharedsounds.de.
