EIN JUNGER SOMMERNACHTSTRAUM
Pop songs on texts by Shakespeare? The answer on this question was given by 63 pupils of 4 different schools who created a circle of songs based on the Shakespearean "Midsummer Night's Dream". The high school pupils composed and performed their songs under Minas Borboudakis' coaching while groups of young dancers performed a choreography on the original music by Mendelssohn.
