As a music and travel loving participant, you will be treated to 6 days in these magnificent cities with numerous private performances throughout the week in unique and historical venues.

In 2023, EO Worldwide’s Sojourn in Porto, Portugal featured six unforgettable days of music, cultural exploration, food, wine, and community. Venues included the 19th century Palacio da Bolsa, a private cruise boat on the Douro River, a working Tribunal that serves as Portugual’s Federal appeals court, and other historic buildings where music is seldom heard.

Our world is immense:  8 billion people in 200 countries, speaking over 7,000 languages. Yet we seek connection, a universal language that can teach, inspire and move us. Fortunately, this language exists.

We know that music has the power to bring people together and foster meaningful connections. We also know that travel - sharing our cultures through exploring the planet  - creates empathy, understanding and harmony. We built EO Worldwide to bring these two elements together.

Musical Sojourns creates thoughtfully curated music collaborations, interactive audience involvement and immersive cultural experiences with an eye towards true cultural and artistic exchange. 

Our sojourns leave a lasting impact, inspire new artistic collaborations that resonate long after the trip and deepen bonds between one another.

Matt Butler is a musician, producer, conductor and founder of the acclaimed Everyone Orchestra. For Matt, music and travel have always been synonymous.

Matt has been touring and exploring the globe for over 20 years. A sojourn to India with wife Julie in the late 90’s opened his eyes to the concept of music as the Universal language. An explorer by nature, Matt is deeply interested in how musicians interact with music in different cultures, from where they sit in society to how they’re appreciated and nurtured.

Musical Sojourns is a natural extension of his passions.
