‘The universe is a circular maze of unknown inspirations. In it, music translates the soul of nature and it attracts birds. A mysterious voice says, ‘We are all as one, and everything is interconnected.’ In the Amphitheatre, let us feel the flow of the cycle of life with the music played, visuals triggered and dance performed.’
