The Famed Toyota Classics for the First Time in India
Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM) has successfully showcased, for the first time ever in India – TOYOTA CLASSICS, a cultural programme organized by Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) worldwide, since 1990. The Toyota Classics concerts have raised funds for charitable organizations through performances by world renowned orchestras where the proceeds are donated to three or four pre-selected charitable organizations. Over a period of 17 years, there have been 141 concerts that have raised YEN 628 million (approximately Rs.30 crores) for 36 charities
across Asia.
The Vienna Operetta Orchestra Formed in 1989 by conductor Siegfried Andraschek, the orchestra is made up of leading Austrian musicians who are also active with the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and the Vienna State Opera. Although perhaps best known for its dramatic presentation of popular works from the Golden and Silver eras of Viennese operetta, the Orchestra has an exceptionally wide repertoire, and has done much to help audiences rediscover some of the less well-known works of the genre too. International solo artistes like Polish soprano Izabela Labuda and German tenor Michael Suttner will join the orchestra, under the skilled artistic direction and masterful conducting of Andraschek. The orchestra is widely acclaimed for its dramatic and engaging performances with romance, comedy, excitement and the musical beauty of Viennese operetta in full measure.
