Melodies Beyond Borders, Shared Roots.

Thematic Concert: Ecumenism and Human Rights. Melodies Beyond Borders, Shared Roots.

A musical and choreographic journey celebrating intercultural dialogue, human unity, and fundamental rights. Through music and dance—universal languages—the program explores what connects cultures beyond national and historical boundaries.

From Yiddish klezmer (My Yiddishe Mame, Yidl mitn Fiddle) to French chanson (Hymne à l’amour, Sous le ciel de Paris), and from Slavic melodies to works shaped by Europe’s memory of war (Ostatnia Niedziela, Theme from Schindler’s List), the repertoire reveals the invisible threads of a shared heritage.

The evening opens with a contemporary dance piece by Lev Babych, a young dancer and refugee from Ukraine, created especially for ACAT Luxembourg and dedicated to the ongoing struggle for human rights.

The Khaïes Trio then explores these “shared roots” through songs from Yiddish, Ukrainian, French, and American traditions. In Yiddish, khaïes means “the joy that gives the desire to live”—a spirit the trio seeks to convey throughout the performance.

This concert is an artistic plea for the recognition of dignity across cultures and a reminder that, in art as in life, we are stronger together.
