WE ARE MUSICAL - THE NEXT GENERATION

"WE ARE MUSICAL - THE NEXT GENERATION" gives young artists the opportunity to stand on a big stage for the first time and present themselves to a wide audience. On this evening, they will stand side by side in the spotlight with well-known guests who are already established in the industry. The event, specially developed by VBW and MUK and dedicated to the artists of tomorrow, has already been very well received in previous years at the Ronacher and Raimund Theater.
