A Concert for Peace and Unity
We honor the Tree of Life Synagogue victims with an open concert to help find comfort, strength, and solace through music, hope, and unity.
The concert will be televised on Tuesday, December 11 at 8pm (EST) by WQED and available on most PBS stations nationwide.
Taking place one month after the tragedy, this concert is free to the public, and all are invited to attend.
Renowned Israeli-American violinist Itzhak Perlman will join Music Director Manfred Honeck, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra and the Mendelssohn Choir of Pittsburgh, and all artists have graciously agreed to donate their services for this performance. Volunteers will be on-hand at Heinz Hall to collect contributions for the Jewish Federation’s “Our Victims of Terror” fund and contributions for the six injured Pittsburgh Police officers through the “Injured Officers Fund.”
This concert is presented as part of the PSO’s “Music for the Spirit” program.
