Humanity and Readiness to Help
To set an example in promoting humanity and the readiness to help, the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra will perform a charity concert on September 28, 2015 at the Wiener Konzerthaus in support of refugee relief. In presenting a programme including Mozart’s “Great” Symphony in g minor and his “Jupiter Symphony”, Christoph Eschenbach will conduct some of the greatest highlights of this composer’s artistic oeuvre; and Elisabeth Kulman will take the solo part in Richard Wagner’s impassioned, highly romantic “Wesendonck-Lieder”. As all participants will waive their performance fees, the complete sales revenue will go to organisations such as Caritas, Diakonie, Hilfswerk, Red Cross, Samariterbund and Volkshilfe.
In addition to generating some much needed financial support for these people who are fleeing from war and violence, this charity concert’s main objective lies in bringing a commitment to refugee relief to the general public’s attention. Please join us by lending your support to the Vienna Philharmonic and the Wiener Konzerthaus, setting an example of humanity and our readiness to help for society at large.
