Historically the Concordia Foundation has produced much work overseas. Our focus is now on schoolchildren of different backgrounds within the UK, starting in London and spreading out across the country to bring children together through music and the arts. Your ongoing support is vital to our work, not just to cover the cost of any performance but also to raise funds to suport the continuing work of the Concordia Foundation in nurturing our young artists and audiences.
Concordia wishes to thank Beazley Group PLC, Dasha Shenkman, Reed Elservier, Pamela Littman, David & Sally Beer, Alan Fenton, Bonnie & Steven Ward, Jean & Eric Cass and Elizabeth Rogula for supporting schools & hospital projects & Young Audiences concerts.
