In support of the Ukrainian citizens currently under attack, Met Opera Radio (Ch. 355) is channeling the healing, universal power of music while raising awareness of ways to help during a special live benefit concert broadcast, featuring timeless works by the Met Orchestra, Chorus and star soloists led by Yannick Nézet-Séguin. The full concert is available now on the SXM App.
A Concert for Ukraine will include works by Barber, Beethoven, Silvestrov, Strauss and Verdi. Soloists are Lise Davidsen and Elza van den Heever, mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton, tenor Piotr Beczała, bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green and Ukrainian bass-baritone Vladyslav Buialskyi, who will lead the Met Chorus in a performance of the Ukrainian National Anthem. In solidarity with the people of Ukraine, all ticket sales and other proceeds will support relief efforts; to donate, visit the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine here, which provides additional resources for those looking to provide aid. The concert is made possible by a generous gift from C. Graham Berwind, III.
