Our story

How we work

Our story

DGEM is the seed that germinated from the TV docu-series “Diapason… Sounds of the world.” This TV documentary emerged from a passion for music and a curiosity to explore different cultures of the world through their music, fostering cultural exchange. Over the expansion of ten years, this idea has successfully manifested into a hands-on project through concerts, workshops, and interviews, all aimed at promoting music education as a non-profit organization.
