For the area of eurythmy you should have some eurythmy experience (e.g. as a former Waldorf student). For the participation in the choir you should have a basic knowledge of music. You should feel comfortable with working with sheet music, which ensures a common work basis. The project is designed for laypersons. Participants who apply for the orchestra have to send us an audition video/audio file (details concerning the registration process here). Students, who study music, singing or eurythmy are nevertheless invited to participate. Participants of CONNECT are aware that the project will be physically and mentally challenging.

At least one of the languages used during the project has to be spoken sufficiently (English or German).

You can only participate if you commit to being present and active in the project for the whole timespan (12 July to 04 August 2019 for eurythmy and choir and 21 July to 04 August 2019 for the orchestra).

The decision as to whether you can participate in CONNECT is based on your application. A withdrawal submitted before the binding confirmation of the organizer is free of charge. A withdrawal submitted after the 31 December 2018: the down payment (250€) will be reimbursed. A withdrawal submitted after the 01 May 2019: the full costs are being retained by the organiser. Participants who withdraw during the project have no claim of reimbursement.

All charges are to be transferred cashless to the organizer’s bank account. All bank charges are at the expense of the participant. All payments are to be bayed in € (EURO). Please mind the fees of your bank and/or possible exchange rates.

The project will take place in Hamburg, Germany. Arrival and departure as well as the expenses tied to them are to be taken care of by the participants. Inherent to that are, if applicable, visa requirements. We strongly advise that you enquire about your visa requirements and travel early on but to book the travel only after you received the binging confirmation. The organizer does not accept liability for any financial damages due to the withdrawal of the participant or applicant or due to the non-participation at the project caused by the faulty travel planning of the participant. Together with their confirmation every participant receives specific travel details. Attention: it is absolutely necessary that students take care of their leave of absence for the participation outside the regular summer vacation in time!
