The Barcelona Symphony Orchestra ded­i­cat­ed its con­certs on the 17, 18 and 19 October 2014, direct­ed by Emmanuel Krivine, to the “Music against child labour” inter­na­tion­al campaign.

A short video on the cam­paign (with sub­ti­tles in Catalan) was shown pri­or to the con­cert and an announce­ment made out­lin­ing its aims, which empha­sized coop­er­a­tion between AMPOS and FIM.

A note was includ­ed in the con­cert pro­gramme and 2,300 red cards dis­trib­uted among the audience.

Next 27 November, the Gran Teatre de la Ópera del Liceu de Barcelona will be ded­i­cat­ing anoth­er con­cert to the cam­paign, with Beethoven’s 9^th sym­pho­ny under the direc­tion of Josep Pons.

FIM mem­bers rep­re­sent­ing the sym­pho­ny orches­tra sec­tor are encour­aged to step up their par­tic­i­pa­tion in the “Music against child labour” ini­tia­tive by incit­ing orches­tras to ded­i­cate at least one con­cert to the cam­paign among those already pro­grammed for their 2014 – 2015 season.
