Adrian Werum is the founder, composer and conductor of the Global Symphony (www.globalsymphony.org ) a world wide unque orchestra, “which takes 30 musicians from around the world, an eclectic collection of instruments and a rich mixture of experience and style,” to excite the audience with new takes on classical works and folk tunes as well as world premieres of new compositions by Adrian Werum.  The orchestra records this year with SWR, the South German Radio, and performs at the world renowned Musikfest Stuttgart (artistic director : Helmuth Rillling ) as well with Altus Matthias Rexroth in 2012.

“At this world premiere, members of the audience were transported from one surprise to the next. Instruments that are never heard in traditional concert halls combined to elicit completely new sounds, turning beloved favorites into something completely innovative, tapping inspiration from all the inhabited continents on earth.” (quotes from Stuttgarter Wochenblatt )
