Charity concert with Philipp Scheucher in the Chamber Music Hall of the Beethoven-Haus Bonn

Donations will benefit the "Freunde Helfen!" convoy as well as the Beethoven House's aid programme "Musicians in Need: Hope for Peace".

Due to current events, the Young Stars concert originally announced for 29 May with the Austrian pianist Philipp Scheucher, who won the Beethoven-Haus Prize at the International Telekom Beethoven Competition 2021, has been brought forward to 4 April 2022 at 8 pm. On the initiative of the Rotary Club Bonn International, the concert is now being organised by the Beethoven-Haus in cooperation with five Rotarian associations and the International Telekom Beethoven Competition Bonn as a benefit concert in support of humanitarian causes in the context of the war in Ukraine. 

Tickets can be purchased for 10 EUR at the Beethoven-Haus shop (shop@beethoven.de / 0228 9817537).

At the same time, the organisers call for donations to the Rotarian-supported "Freunde Helfen!" convoy in aid of the suffering population in the conflict area as well as to the Beethoven House's aid programme "Musicians in Need: Hope for Peace" to the following account:

The Austrian pianist Philipp Scheucher, who won the Beethoven House Prize at the recent International Telekom Beethoven Competition as the audience favourite, is one of the leading musicians of his generation and has already performed on the major stages of Europe and North America. Born in Graz in 1993, he received his pianistic training at the Graz University of the Arts, the Cologne University of Music and Dance and the Hanover University of Music, Drama and Media. Ludwig van Beethoven has a very special significance for Philipp Scheucher. He feels a very special affinity for his work, says Scheucher.
