Rebuild Ukraine Gala on Deutsche Welle
World-famous opera arias for a good cause. At the First Charity Opera Gala #RebuildUkraine on April 19, 2024 at Konzerthaus Berlin, international stars sang arias by Mozart, Verdi, Puccini, Donizetti, Offenbach, Handel, Gluck, Massenet and others. The concert was accompanied by the Ukrainian Freedom Chorus and the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin (DSO), conducted by Keri-Lynn Wilson.
The donations will be used to set up community centers for traumatized children in the cities of Kherson, Donetsk, and Zaporizhzhia, which have been severely damaged by the war. It is one of the important projects of the aid organization #WeAreAllUkrainians, which works hand in hand with the Ukrainian partner organization Save Ukraine.
The charity event was organized by the Harald Christ Foundation for Democracy and Diversity, which since 2020 has been committed to supporting socially disadvantaged families and children, strengthening diversity, and promoting artistic and cultural work. The patron of the gala is the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. Co-patron is the Governing Mayor of Berlin, Kai Wegner. The artists waived their usual fees for this good cause.
