Foreword As mayor of the capital-city Salzburg it makes me happy that Chorus MM organizes the 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th International CANTUS MM Music & Culture Festival 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 in Salzburg. Orchestras, choirs and dance groups from all over the world meet thereby in our beautiful city, in order to sing and to make music. As particularly inspiring I feel the fact that culture benefit and solidarity go "hand in hand" at the CANTUS MM Music & Culture Festival. I wish a beautiful festival to the supervisors, the artists and their audience and look forward to a clear indication, which is indispensable for an alive culture and music city!
