The Swiss Research Foundation "Child and Cancer" systematically supports pediatric cancer research and makes financial contributions to projects selected by the medical expert committee that are close to the clinic.

The knowledge gained from the research projects should enable specialists to make more precise diagnoses and develop specific forms of therapy. In this way, "Child and Cancer" helps to further improve the chances of recovery for children suffering from cancer.

All proceeds from the Benfiz concert go to the foundation. The musicians, conductors and soloists donate their fees in full - the Tonhalle also waives the reimbursement of costs.

Beethoven's "Egmont" Overture and Triple Concerto as well as Piazzolla's "Cuatro Estaciones Porteñas" will be performed. Tickets for the benefit concert are now available in advance at the Tonhalle.
