Song contest
Let's compose together the music of our Earth!
In spring/summer 2020, RUS and PoliEtnico - the choir of the Politecnico di Torino - promoted a creative contest for the composition of a musical piece entitled "WE ARE THE EARTH": a choral piece of music, articulated in stanzas and refrains, multilingual, with lyrics inspired by the themes of the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN Agenda 2030 and with the creative contribution of Italian universities.
The contest is sponsored by the Italian Alliance for Sustainable Development (ASviS)
