Al Bustan International Festival 2023
Since the Al Bustan Festival was founded in 1994, it has established in Lebanon a unique and unprecedented tradition of a music season in winter.
The founders wished to revive the cultural life of a country reemerging after seventeen years of war. The Festival has indeed reached its objective, presenting each year more than thirty performances over a five week period in February and March. With a predominance of chamber music, the Festival also includes opera, orchestral concerts, choral concerts, dance, marionettes and theatre.
The Festival takes special care in presenting each year a rich and homogeneous programme focused around a special theme, celebrating the culture of a country or a city, or exploring a special subject.
Only when we are all together more merciful, more honest, ready to help, open-hearted and open-hearted, heal crippled souls, then our little mission will be fulfilled. Thanks to all the organizers and musicians of the Lebanese Symphony Orchestra for the days of real communication and something incredibly exciting for me.
