Performances from Kultursommerfestival captured on camera.

By Staff

Earlier this month Refuge Worldwide joined artists including Kelvyn Colt, LARY, Moses Yoofee Trio and Noah Slee at Berlin's Gardens of the World for Kultursommerfestival 2023.

An initiative of Berlin's Senate For Culture, Kultursommerfestival aims to bring together the city's diverse cultural landscape within a series of free to attend, outdoor events.

Expressions In The Garden saw a live music and performance event curated by Dhanesh Jayaselan, with A Song For You (conducted by Noah Slee) and The Expressions Orchestra (conducted by Zacharias Falkenberg), alongside dance performances from the Movement Seven collective (choreography by Stephanie Ilova).

Take a look back at the evening in our photo gallery, captured by Jamila K. Grote, Yanina Isla, and Coda Photos.

Songs by each artist were completely reinterpreted and performed for the first time on a large stage in a form never heard before.

'A Song For You' have quickly become one of Berlin's most beloved collectives.

As the sun went down in east Berlin, performers began to crank up the tempo.
