Reports & Accounts

My favourite show from this year’s Aberdeen International Youth Festival (AIYF) was the Western Arts University Ambassadors (USA). The story was called “Blazing Tides” and it was about the struggles and conflicts between the elements of fire and water. The story was influenced by a range of stories and films such as Romeo and Juliet and The Last Airbender.

This Up Close and Musical event was held at St Mary’s Church on Thursday the 28^th of July. The all singing concert ranged from many different styles from classical to theatrical and bits in between with each piece being accompanied with a piano. Each performer never failed to put on a performance and powerfully sold their songs to the audience.

Aberdeen went full blast on Saturday the 25^th of July in the City Centre with many outdoor out-standing dancing, music and singing performances. The event was at the Aberdeen City Centre at 1pm-4pm and it was a free event. There were many performances from all around the world showing there different cultures.
