Medimuses seeks to achieve a sense of the common basis of the Mediterranean's fascinating heritage in classical music. Although this is partly preserved through written archives (primarily Byzantine manuscripts), the real source is the continuing oral tradition – which can offer remarkable insight to the music of ancient times.
Numerous concerts, production of a CD (Great Mediterranean Masters) and a series of books (Great Mediterranean Composers) encourage people to hear the echoes of ancient Mediterranean culture.
Target groups: scholars, radio and television producers, journalists, music teachers, wider public interested in music matters.
