"Make Freedom Ring" is a collective of musicians that organizes an international classical concert series drawing attention to the current humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and collects donations for various aid organizations.

Background

On March 8 2024 in London and March 10 2024 in Berlin, the group Make Freedom Ring organized parallel concerts to fundraise for institutions providing humanitarian aid in Gaza, as well as to generate conversation and support. Since then, several more concerts across Berlin, Manchester, Munich, Hamburg, Frankfurt, Barcelona, New York and Lisbon have raised over 100.000€ for various charities and foundations, such as Oxfam International, the Norwegian Refugee Council, Medical Aid for Palestinian, the Palestine Children's Relief Fund and Medico International. 

These concerts were organized as a response to the classical music industry’s relative silence regarding the ongoing human casualties and loss of life in Gaza, in the hopes of not only showing support for the people of Palestine and those that are suffering, but of starting a conversation within the sector about this world event. Make Freedom Ring has mobilized musicians and artists to draw attention to the plight of Palestinians through music with the help of media coverage and the public. Please spread the word.
