Musicians from the Ensemble "One Earth Orchestra" play a set of diverse music from all over the world including music inspired by nature sounds. The concert shall highlight the importance of biological diversity for the diversity of culture and arts in the world. It shall strengthen and express the responsibility of artists and musicians for the preservation of nature and contribute to bridging the lack of communication between actors from the cultural and conservation sector.
