A look into the Animato Community

If you have not yet been a member of the Animato Foundation Orchestra, do you really know the «Animato Inside» ? Under this term we understand all that is going on before, during and after the official concerts during an Animato Academy & Concert Tour. To provide such an inside look to this «community life» full of unique experiences, challenges, moments of joy and celebrations and adventures we have put together an «Animato Community Video» arranged from video clips and snapshots from the last few years which you will find by clicking the start bottom. Enjoy it and – for music students playing a classical orchestra instrument: join the next Animato Academy & Concert Tour.

We are more than a Project Orchestra –
We are Friends

Every second year the Animato Academy and Concert Tour brings together over 80+ young musicians from different countries and culture backgrounds. Every participant is becoming an active part of a vivid community, living together and sharing all the ups and downs of a European wide Concert Tour in a short but intensive time frame. Among orchestra member a natural trend is the emerging desire to keep contact among each other beyond the common time and adventures during the particular Academy and Concert Tour.

Social Media


A very high percentage of the Orchestra Members of Animato are using Facebook. For Animato Community member Facebook is therefore the communication platform of choice. Animato Foundation has therefore created for each Animato Foundation Concert Tour in a given year a “closed user group” on Facebook to allow an exchange of information with old friends from Animato and to keep the intra-orchestra communication protected and private.
Please contact our Animato Team to be admitted as a former orchestra member to the respective closed user group.

Opportunity to meet again

Animato Academy and Concert Tour: As we know our past Orchestra Members well we offer them the opportunity to come again to an Animato Academy and Concert Tour and to perfect their advanced music education and to meet old friends. Admission conditions – in particular virtual admission requirements – are eased for Ex Animato Orchestra members and for members of a past string section even non-existent.
