Canticum Novum International

Canticum Novum ey began in the small village of Coronini, Romania – with the concert in an old abandoned cinema, and grew to set the Ukrainian Book of records only six years later, with its Music Camp International Concert at Artek, on the Crimean peninsula overlooking the Black Sea, and a choir of almost 1,000 orphans performing a concert at the National Opera eater in Odesa, Ukraine.

International was born in June, 2002, with a vision to transform the lives of young people through the power of music. For the first 18 years, Canticum Novum worked exclusively through its on-location division, Music Camp International – with its projects located in Romania and Ukraine.

During the first 18 years, our on-location division, Music Camp International, worked with more than 30,000 young people in two countries. e power of music gave these young people dignity, hope, and self-confidence. ey worked together across all economic, social, educational, political and religious barriers to form one big family –who believed that they had the power to change their world!

Built on an innovative foundation that documented the fact that all children have music inside, and when involved in a dynamic, interactive, and positive environment can learn and experience the universal benefits that music provides.
