Allerzielenconcert — Charity Concert for Ukraine, Eindhoven

🎶 A choir, a chamber orchestra and a Ukrainian accordion in one church. An evening where Fauré and Rossini sound alongside Piazzolla, and every ticket becomes medical aid for Ukraine. The concert is part of the Allerzielenconcerten series, led by conductor Tom Sijters.

On stage: Projectkoor Lux Aeterna and Valkenswaards Kamerorkest, pianist Rob van Heck, harpist Inge Frimout, soprano Hatice Aydogan, and Ramon van den Boom on harpsichord and harmonium. They are joined by Ukrainian accordionist Oleh Lysenko, who is also performing without a fee.

🕯 Programme:

• Cantique de Jean Racine by Gabriel Fauré
• Kyrie and Credo from Rossini's Petite Messe Solennelle, with the intermezzo from Mascagni's Cavalleria Rusticana in between
• after the interval, Lysenko will play the first movement of Viktor Vlasov's GULAG, his own composition Rainbow and Piazzolla's Libertango
• the accordion pieces will be interwoven with Herman Finkers' St. Joris Mis on themes of remembrance, hope and resilience

💛💙 The funds raised will go to the Music for Ukraine foundation, founded by Lysenko. They will be spent on ambulances, dental equipment and other medical needs. The goal of the initiative: at least €3,000.
