Concert for the Cure - Jordan Hall - Boston 12/5/10
Mahler - Symphony No. 5 - Adagietto

Before Mahler, a few words from Julie Scolnik, Artistic director, for Concert for the Cure.




World-renowned music director of the Berlin Philharmonic, Sir Simon Rattle, along with 75 esteemed musicians drawn from leading orchestras and chamber ensembles have come together tonight in a spirit of love and generosity to make music together.

In 2005, Boston flutist Julie Scolnik underwent treatments for breast cancer. Throughout her treatments, music played an essential role in keeping her spirits high, and as artistic director of a chamber music series, she continued to organize and play concerts in wigs after she had lost her hair.

In 2008, Scolnik reached out to her musical colleagues to present a full symphony concert to raise funds so
that all women facing breast cancer could have the care and support they deserved.

The funds raised from this concert go to the Komen Foundation to support awareness for breast cancer screening, treatment and educational programming to help women and men throughout Massachusetts.
