Ladies and Gentlemen,
Music lovers who wants to support the Philharmonische Verein der Sinti und Roma
(The Roma.Sinti String Orchestra) Frankfurt am Main e.V.,
In this short note I would like to ask you for your help in supporting the work of our Association.
In May 2001 the "Philharmonische Verein der Sinti und Roma Frankfurt am Main e.V."
(The Philharmonic Society of Sinti and Roma, Frankfurt am Main e.V was founded.
The Association's aim is to cultivate the musical heritage of the Sinti and Roma people.
In order to realise this goal, the Association sees its task as being the following:
Form various ensembles of Sinti and Roma musicians.
Found a string or chamber orchestra which will eventually
develop into a philharmonic orchestra.
Found a Sinti and Roma choir and
provide all these groups with the opportunity of performing
in public in order that a larger circle of music-lovers should
get to know Sinti and Roma music.
Promote the training of these musicians
Bring back forgotten music and
and of course to promote the next generation of musicians.
The committee would welcome any ideas and/or financial support you may be able to offer our Association, founded as it was for the good of all.
Many kind regards,
Riccardo M Sahiti
Chairman and Artistic Director
