Since 2020, musicians from the Deutsche Staatsphilharmonie, the Popakademie Baden-Württemberg and the Oriental Music Academy Mannheim have been answering the call to "Make music together!" The name "Colourage" (from color, collage and courage) is an expression of the concept of reflecting the musical diversity of a post-migrant urban society through intensive encounters. It links the orchestra with the local migrant music scene with various artistic and structural effects on both sides.
