On the initiative of the Ukrainian musician Tamara Lukasheva living in Cologne and under the patronage of Cologne's Mayor Henriette Reker, we are organizing a Solidarity Concert for the musicians living and working in Ukraine on the coming Tuesday, 01 March 2022, at 20.00**.

All proceeds will be donated.

We share the deep dismay caused by Russia's aggressive belligerent invasion of Ukraine and stand in solidarity with all the people remaining in Ukraine, here especially the musicians. In order to support these people directly, we want not only to stand in solidarity with them but also to provide them with money as soon as possible.

Thus, together with Tamara Lukasheva, we will find a way to directly pass on all income generated from this concert and further actions (entrance fees, donations, fee for WDR broadcasting rights, etc.) to the affected people.

The concert evening, which will be broadcast live on WDR3 and via video stream on our website, will also be a special one musically: With the participation of numerous musicians from Cologne and NRW Tamara Lukasheva will put together a program consisting of Ukrainian songs as well as own compositions and improvisations of the participating artists in various instrumentations. More information will be announced soon.

Participating musicians (as of 02/27/2022):
Tamara Lukasheva (vocals, piano)
Marianna Sadovka (vocals)
Matthias Schriefl (trumpet, euphonium, horn, tuba, vocals)
Janning Trumann (trombone)
