On the 6th of March 2018, Fossil Free Maastricht in collaboration with GroenLinks hosted ClimateKeys@Maastricht: music and dialogue on climate change! The build-up and excitement around the event attracted people of all ages, particularly those captivated by the fusion of climate change and music.

The ClimateKeys format is the brainchild of composer-pianist Lola Perrin, who views the music concert as a powerful avenue to discuss climate change in new and creative ways. The Fossil Free movement is a global initiative, with civil society groups demanding that institutions follow a green financial strategy, divesting from fossil fuels and unethical investments.

The evening started off on a melodious note as the bands “Kalika – a seamless fusion rooted in Indian classical and rock music” and “Freya – a lively collective playing sensual pop with jazz and baroque influences” entertained the audience with their songs.
