The news is finally out: SEYO 2024 will take place against the backdrop of the breathtaking Adriatic seaside, hosted in collaboration with our Italian friends from LiberaMusica. With activities spread between the cities of Pesaro and Urbino from 13 to 21 July 2024, the bi-annual gathering's title is Song for the Earth and is held within the celebrations of Pesaro Italian Capital of Culture 2024.

Rehearsals will occur in the historical city of Urbino - the birthplace of the great Raphael - where lodgings are also provided in partnership with the University of Urbino, established in 1506. And as you may have gathered from the title, its primary focus will be on raising awareness about the importance of nature alongside, of course, plenty of music-making.

The grand finale concert will then take place at the recently renovated Spazio Balena Cantiere Rossini, a former shipyard repurposed as a performance venue. For this unique event, we are excited to partner with the Rossini Opera Festival, renowned for its spectacular opera productions under the artistic direction of Juan Diego Florez.

We can't reveal more at this stage - but do watch this space for more news.
