Bring your song

Bring your music. Share your culture. Create something extraordinary together.

Beyond Music Vol.5 is an invitation to artists from around the world to collaborate across cultures and create original music together.

Curated by internationally acclaimed trumpeter, composer and producer Ibrahim Maalouf, who will also collaborate with the winning artists as Guest Artist, Beyond Music Vol.5 celebrates the creative possibilities that emerge when artists from different musical traditions meet with openness, curiosity and a shared desire to create something new.

Whether you are a singer, instrumentalist, composer, songwriter or producer, your unique artistic voice is part of what makes this collaboration possible.

The Creative Inspiration
behind Vol.5

Every Beyond Music album begins with a shared creative idea

For Vol.5, that inspiration is the trumpet – an instrument whose sound has travelled across cultures and generations for centuries.

Every submission must include the trumpet as part of the artistic concept. Beyond this shared creative element, there are no stylistic boundaries.

Whether your music is vocal or instrumental, rooted in jazz, classical, pop, folk, electronic, hip hop or your own cultural traditions, every genre, every artistic perspective and every creative voice is welcome.

The goal is to discover what becomes possible when artists from different cultures come together around one shared inspiration and create something that none of them could have created alone.
