Milí účastníci konference Vis-Imp, rádi přeposíláme pozvánku na Mezinárodní pěvecký resp. hudební týden zrakově postižených v Hannoveru od 27. července do 4. srpna 2024. Akci organizuje Německá federace nevidomých a slabozrakých, k nám se dostala díky konferenci Evropské unie nevidomých pro mladé. Uzávěrka pro přihlašování je 1. května. Cena za ubytování s plnou penzí je 300 euro pro zrakově postižené účastníky, 150 euro pro průvodce. Pro samostatné zrakově postižené, zvládající základní péči o sebe, je dle organizátorů pobyt možný i bez doprovodu. Dorozumívacími jazyky budou angličtina a němčina, proto níže zasíláme pozvánku nepřeloženou do češtiny, pouze v angličtině. Německý originál najdete na odkazu: https://www.dbsv.org/files/blindheit-sehbehinderung/DBSVInternationalMusicWe... Týden je určen zpěvákům a zpěvačkám všech možných hudebních žánrů, schopnost ovládat nějaký hudební nástroj je vítána, není však podmínkou. Koho nabídka zaujala, čtěte dále. Budeme rádi, když tato zajímavá akce bude mít i české účastníky a uvítáme, když nám dáte vědět, že se do Hannoveru chystáte, ale zejména, jak jste byli spokojeni.

Hudební pozvánku předává Luboš Zajíc

Dear friends, Deutscher Blinden- und Sehbehindertenverband, DBSV (German Federation of the Blind and Partially Sighted, www.dbsv.org) invites young and adult persons with visual impairment to the international music week.

This invitation can be found online here: https://www.dbsv.org/files/blindheit-sehbehinderung/DBSVInternationalMusicWe...

Classical choral pieces, instrumental pieces, pop songs, rap or beatbox - you don't even have to choose, you can have it all at our international music week. For one week, you will practise exciting polyphonic songs, choral and instrumental pieces under experienced direction and can also train your voice under the guidance of a professional voice coach. There is a obligatory daily choir rehearsal for everyone. You can also sing solo or contribute an instrumental piece. We will make the music with you that you enjoy. The end of our music week will be the final public concert performed by all of you, where you can inspire the regional and national audience with your talent. Participants from all countries are very welcome. The programme will therefore be in English and German.
