Should the concert halls reopen at the beginning of December, the SoNoRo festival will be organized in Bucharest with public, the organizers said.

Under the "Magic Bird" theme, the 2020 edition of the festival puts the spotlight on the work of famous sculptor Constantin Brancusi and marks the year of Beethoven.
