Because we believe there is a void in terms of musical creation for the younger audience,
CCB/Fábrica das Artes has defined as one of its main programming lines a strong and consistent intervention in this area, stimulating the artistic community to develop new creations through a collective reflection and providing the right conditions for creative development. Thus is born
BIG BANG –
The European Adventurous Music Festival for Children. This international project is inspired in the Festival Oorsmeer (founded in 1995 by the Zonzo Compagnie Belgium) our
Big Bang will be co-organised by
CCB/Fábrica das Artes and
Zonzo Compagnie.
BIG BANG is an international project that involves five partners from five different countries: Zonzo Compagnie (Belgium), CCB (Portugal), Stavanger Konserthus (Norway), Opéra de Lille (France) and Millenaris (Hungary). Sponsored by the European Union Culture Program, this festival aims to create a meeting platform for composers, musicians, performers and their creative projects, be they Portuguese or from other European countries, in order to stimulate and contribute for the development of the production and presentation of non-commercial music for children.
