The Red Cross Luxembourg and the Philharmonie have partnered with the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg (OPL) to put on a benefit concert in aid of the victims of the conflict in Ukraine; this concert will take place at the Philharmonie in Luxembourg-Kirchberg on Friday 18 March 2022 at 20:00.
Tickets cost €49 (Phil27: €10), with all revenues supporting the Red Cross' many initiatives in the context of the war in Ukraine.
The organisation has already provided immediate funds of €150,000 from its reserves and, on Wednesday 2 March 2022, thanks to the support of donors living in Luxembourg, another €200,000 could be added, supporting the Red Cross Ukraine in its efforts to procure needed goods and to organise the humanitarian intervention where it is required.
Moreover, teams are on site to help evacuate thousands of people, taking care of the wounded and transporting them to hospitals. This past weekend, 2,000 individuals were trained in first aid and the number of people joining the Red Cross Ukraine is steadily growing.
The upcoming benefit concert will be performed by the OPL under the baton of Lionel Bringuier. Joining them is young pianist Bruce Liu, winner of the most recent Chopin Competition in Warsaw (Poland). The programme features the Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No. 1 by Frédéric Chopin and the Symphony No. 2 by Sergei Rachmaninov.
