Justus Friedrich Eichhorn 12-year-old Justus Friedrich Eichhorn was born into a family of musicians in Weimar. He made his debut at the age of 10 with Haydn’s Piano Concerto in D major. Since then, he has performed with numerous orchestras and has won several piano competitions. In autumn 2022 he will perform Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No. 2 in several cities in Germany and make his debut with the Korean Chamber Orchestra at the Seoul Arts Center in 2023.
By attending the concert, you support our projects and give children in crisis and conflict regions a healthy start in life and the chance of a future. All proceeds from the concert evening will go to Save the Children and support projects for children in emergency situations, such as the current global hunger crisis.
The effects of the war in Ukraine combined with the climate crisis and the Corona pandemic have dramatically worsened the situation for disadvantaged children and families worldwide. 828 million people – almost ten times the population of Germany – suffer from hunger or are already malnourished.
We would be delighted if you enjoyed this unique concert for a good cause together with us and at the same time make a valuable contribution to children in need.
