In addition to the direct financial contribution, the organizations benefit substantially from the international solidarity and media attention associated with WDO concerts.

A musical journey for expecting families
A project entirely dedicated to expecting families – both the parents and their arriving child.
Two workshop to discover classical music, singing and to find one’s own voice, creating a cradle of sound for the whole family.
The workshop is recommended from the fifth to the eighth month of pregnancy, when it is scientifically proven that the foetus begins to perceive and react to sounds coming from outside. Replaying the sounds perceived during gestation, especially the parents’ voices, after birth produces relaxing effects, intensifies the sound bond with the baby and promotes vocal identification.
The workshop is held in Italian and a basic knowledge of the language is strongly advised.
Tickets
1 participant to 1 workshop € 10,00
1 participant to 2 workshops € 16,00
2 participants 1 workshop € 16,00
2 participants 2 workshops € 30,00The project
Workshop practical info
The Opera minus 9 project includes two workshop meetings in comfortable spaces, where activities of musical listening, vocal experimentation and discussion are proposed. Mothers and their companions can attend one workshop or both:
Workshop 1 (31 May): a guided listening session of live classical music, proposing interesting listening activities to be repeated at home during the months of pregnancy, a magical experience in contact with musical instruments and their vibrations;
Workshop 2 (7 June): a music and movement workshop with practical tips for playing with music in the family in the first months of life.
