Romania's Madrigal National Chamber Choir and the Brukenthal National Museum in Sibiu have signed a five-year strategic partnership to develop joint projects combining music and visual arts. The collaboration, running from 2026 to 2031, will include audiovisual productions, sound exhibitions, multimedia installations, educational programs, and international projects.
The agreement was signed on Sunday, August 2, at the Brukenthal National Museum in Sibiu by representatives of the two institutions, including museum manager Raluca Teodorescu and Madrigal Choir manager Emil Pantelimon.
Under the concept "Music sees. Art is heard," works from the Brukenthal Museum's collections will be paired with pieces from the Madrigal Choir's repertoire based on historical, symbolic, geographical, aesthetic, or thematic connections, according to the official announcement.
The institutions plan to use these combinations to create films and artistic videos, sound exhibitions, multimedia installations, publications, educational materials, and digital experiences. Over the next five years, the collaboration will also explore ways of integrating music into the museum experience through sound installations and digital technologies.
Other initiatives will include research into musical heritage held in the museum's collections, original audiovisual productions, educational programs for children and families, and joint promotion of Romanian cultural heritage through international tours and projects.
