Monthly Concerts Series

A Monthly Concert Series on local and international level is of of great benefit not only for the performing artists, but also for the arts community at large. The monthly concert series in Cambodia create a sense of dignity and promotes a spirit of international cooperation and mutual respect. Encouraged by the success of recent concerts, F.W.C.P.A. believes a continuing monthly concert series is an important step for the future development of Khmer performers.

The Music Festivals

The diversity of music in the 20th century is amazing. Concert presentations must focus on this factor. One important aspect is the close connection of ethnic peoples in many lands that have had an enormous impact on world music. This is not an exclusive feature of 20th & 21st century music as cross-cultural influences are as old as mankind. In an age of outmoded colonialism, rising modernism and internationalism, mass media, tourism, and the electronic recording industry, the contact and exchange between cultures has been increasingly frequent. While Western music culture has been a significant influence in East and Southwest Asia, the reverse has also occurred. Music has become an important field in aspects of socio-cultural studies.

The Benefit Concerts

F.W.C.P.A. believes in the power of art to shape and change our world. Creativity is a method of sharing and communicating, and the universal language of the arts allows us to articulate both common and diverse human experiences. It is through the arts that we learn tolerance and understanding and we can begin to take active roles in our communities.
