Our Kids Charity Foundation is delighted to announce its third fundraising concert with Amira Medunjanin, “Eastern Europe’s most potent contemporary voice”.
This year the concert is to take place at the stunning St Peter’s Church in Notting Hill (W11 2PN) at 19:30 on Saturday, the 21th of May 2016.
Join us to enjoy traditional music from the Balkans and support Our Kids charitable mission of improving the lives of disadvantaged children and young adults in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Minimum donation to attend the concert is £20/person and it can be made on this page. Please clearly state the names on whose behalf the donation is being made. For this donation, you will enjoy canapés and a complimentary drink.
Amira’s latest album “Silk & Stone” has received excellent reviews in British media. The Guardian awarded 4* to Amira’s “intimate, pained and gently compelling voice” and Nigel Williamson described the album as “career-defining third album from Bosnia’s finest export” in “Uncut Magazine”. Amira is currently recording her sixth album at Real World Studios, Wiltshire.
Amira will be performing with Ante Gelo, guitar and Zvonimir Sestak, double bass, both from Zagreb, Croatia
Funds raised by the concert will be used to finance Our Kid's long term and ongoing projects to support children in social care and young adults over 18, many with special needs, who have to leave institutional care in Bosnia and Herzegovina, but have no support from the local authorities.
