Live streaming for Dawn Chorus Day from the Cișmigiu Garden in the center of Bucharest. The streaming is made during a public listening session and is followed by a performance by Anamaria Pravicencu and Vlad Hodrea in a discreet dialogue with the environment before the sunrise. 
Event organized by SEMI SILENT together with Cișmigiu Civic Initiative.          
Situated in the heart of the city, Grădina Cișmigiu (Cișmigiu Garden) is one of the oldest public gardens of Bucharest (built in the first half of the 19th century), with a surface of 16ha, mixing local and exotic vegetation. 30.000 trees were brought from the Romanian mountains and the exotic plants were imported from the Vienna's Botanical Garden. The swamp in the middle was transformed into an artificial lake crossed by two decorative bridges. The initial design was made by the German landscape architect Carl Meyer, living in Bucharest at the time. Later, it was modified by different landscapers, but the main frame was kept intact. 

Over a year, in the park are 55 species of birds and their total number can attend hundreds of thousands.
