The non-profit organisation, the Peter Cerny Foundation was the first such organisation in Hungary to organise the rescue and transportation of premature and ill newborn babies and this task has been carried out selflessly and with tremendous expertise by the Foundation’s employees. As a result of their work, the survival statistics for premature and ill newborns have dramatically improved. Besides the practical aspects of the job, the non-profit organisation undertakes other activities (for exa...mple, offering tuition on resuscitation and other techniques, testing the sight and hearing of premature babies etc.) which has further improved the standards in Hungary in this realm. With this benefit concert, we are not just aiming to celebrate the Peter Cerny Foundation and express our thanks for its work over the past twenty years, but to offer help in its continued operation. This gala evening presents much loved opera and musical melodies, sung by Hungarian and foreign artists, from Verdi’s Aida to Lloyd Webber’s Phantom, accompanied by the Failoni Orchestra, which, like the Cerny Foundation, is also twenty years old, formed from musicians at the Hungarian State Opera House. The ensemble has collaborated in concerts with the likes of such stars as Plácido Domingo, José Cura, Ennio Morricone and Andrea Bocelli. The orchestra will be conducted in this concert by Tamás Pál. A Liszt Prize winner and Artist of Merit, he is one of the leading Hungarian conductors who enjoys an international career.
