Sir Karl Jenkins will conduct hundreds of musicians from over 40 countries, in a performance of epic proportions for 2023’s UNESCO Concert for Peace.

Around 650 performers from the World Orchestra for Peace, World Choir for Peace, Hard Chor Linz, Choir of the Musische BORG Linz, singers from the state youth choirs of Austria and 40 other countries, and the Stay At Home Choir, will join together in music – the first time such a feat has been undertaken for a world premiere under the baton of the composer.

The 270 singers from the Stay At Home Choir will join virtually with synchronised AV projection, forming a spectacular visual accompaniment to the music-making in the room.
