The Benefit Concert  “A Child‘s Dream”

A Child’s Dream is a dream of Peace. The Chamber Group of the Kyiv Classic Orchestra will take the audience through the richness and versatility of Ukrainian musical culture. The Group’s music will contrast the violent sounds of war with the whole kaleidoscope of Ukrainian musical traditions and diversity, reflecting the bright and colorful aspects of Ukrainian lives, identity, and culture. The music will include folklore melodies, internationally recognized Ukrainian classical pieces as well as recent modern and original compositions by young Ukrainian composers. 

​

Meeka Quan DiLorenzo's performance of a world-famous Bach composition will exemplify the solidarity of the American people with Ukrainians’ fight for freedom, democracy, and peace. 

​

This unique concert is hosted by The Humanity Funds and The Seattle Series.  It is sponsored by Benaroya Hall. All proceeds and support will benefit Ukraine’s largest Children’s Hospital, Ohmatdit.

The Humanity Funds is a Washington State based non-profit that runs humanitarian programs in Ukraine and Afghanistan. It focuses on programs for women and children. The May benefit concert in Seattle follows two benefit concerts last year that The Humanity Funds organized in cooperation with Ukrainian and international musicians to support Ukraine’s largest Children Hospital, Ohmatdit. For this concert, The Humanity Funds has joined forces with The Seattle Series, an intimate chamber music series featuring world-class Seattle-based artists and their special guests from around the nation and globe.
