Toyota Classics celebrates its 25th anniversary this November with a philanthropic fundraiser featuring an envelope-pushing, highly prestigious classical music orchestra that boasts some of the best soloists from around the world.
This year’s edition will feature the Covent Garden Soloists Orchestra from London; with virtuoso soloists Vasko Vassilev and Pamela Nicholson, under the baton of world-renowned conductor Miguel Angel Navarro.
The gala night aims to raise funds for the Lung Foundation of Malaysia, the National Kidney Foundation, and Pertubuhan Kebajikan dan Perlindungan Nur Qaseh Malaysia.
“To date, with combined proceeds from ticket sales and corporate donations for the Toyota Classics concerts in Malaysia we have donated more than RM 7 million to 56 non-profit and charitable organisations,” shared Datuk Ismet Suki, President of UMW Toyota Motor.
The theme for this year’s Toyota Classics is, befittingly, “Music that Moves Lives”. “We believe in striving and making a difference in every place where we live, work or conduct business; which is in line with the company’s initiatives,” he explained.
It is believed to be among the longest running classical music fundraisers in Malaysia, with a firm legacy of representing the philanthropic pillar of UMW Toyota Motor’s Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives.
The performance will be held on 11th November 2014 at Dewan Filharmonik Petronas and tickets are priced at RM220, RM170, RM120 and RM60, and can be purchased from the Box Office, Dewan Filharmonik PETRONAS. Tickets sales for the gala event begin today onwards.
