The Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra, under the direction of Conductor Benjamin Zander, concludes its 10th anniversary season with a benefit concert to support families of children with disabilities and those in contact zones in Ukraine.

A hundred percent of the gross proceeds from ticket sales will support the Bright Kids Charity’s No Child Forgotten Fund which assists some of Ukraine's most vulnerable children suffering from Russia's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

The evening’s program includes Shostakovich’s Festive Overture, Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No.

3, featuring New England Conservatory piano faculty member Alexander Korsantia as soloist, and Tchaikovsky’s Symphony No.

6, Pathétique.

The concert will also be available for viewing via live streaming; a recorded version can also be accessed after the concert.

Tickets are $60, $40, and $20; $10 for students with code STU-DIS.

Tickets to the live stream are $20 for general admission, $10 for students, and $40 for supporters.

Concertgoers may also make additional donations to the cause during checkout.

Tickets are available at www.bostonphil.org or by calling 617-236-0999.

Originally from the country of Georgia, Alexander Korsantia’s performances—alone, with orchestra, and in chamber music—have garnered accolades around the world, and the list of conductors he has worked with is a veritable Who’s Who.

Critics worldwide have commented on his perfect technique and extraordinarily burnished tone.

Korsantia’s previous performance of the Prokofiev Piano Concerto No.

3 with the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra earned critical acclaim.

“…throughout, from the fiery first movement to the haunting third, he played with the sensitivity of a chamber musician,” according to the Boston Classical Review.
