A brilliant performance in dark times. Eleven days after the start of the war in Ukraine, EHL arranged a benefit concert for the aid organisation “Nachbar in Not - Hilfe für die Ukraine“. The sold-out matinee on 26 March 2022 in the magnificent Mozart Hall of Vienna’s Konzerthaus was a musical sensation and collected 140,000 Euros of sponsoring and donations.
700 visitors enjoyed an attractive classic programme with the violin concert in D-major, op. 61 by Ludwig van Beethoven and symphony Nr. 4 in D-minor, op. 120 from Robert Schumann. Under the direction of Pablo Boggiano, the musicians of the Academic Orchestra
Association also convinced Michael Ehlmaier, Managing Partner of der EHL, to join them as a violinist. He presented the impressive proceeds from the concert, which was organised together with the Rotary Club Perchtoldsdorf, to Pius Strobl, Head of the ORF Humanitarian Broadcasting Department. “I am extremely happy that we – together with our many business partners and customers – were able to raise such an impressive amount and set a clear and concrete sign of our support for the people in and from Ukraine. The real estate branch has shown its solidarity, drive and big heart to ease the catastrophic situation of these many people in need through humanitarian assistance.“
