      Overview

      When words fail music speaks. Renowned artists and composers come together to support and raise funds for SOS Children's Villages Ukraine Appeal, in the hope that this contribution can bring some solace to thousands of refugee children affected by the conflict.

      The programme features a selection of pieces by renowned composers who themselves experienced the fate of migrants, refugees, and were vocal critics of war and violence.

      Organised by the Polish Cultural Institute in London in partnership with Wigmore Hall, The Ludwig van Beethoven Association, Marylebone Music Festival, Orion Orchestra, Lady Camila Panufnik, Roxanna Panufnik and the Royal Academy of Music, with the support of the Marylebone Hotel and Wiszniewski Family

      All net proceeds from this event will go to SOS Children's Villages Ukraine Appeal.

      Please note that tickets cannot be exchanged for other Wigmore Hall events and refunds are not available.
