Cami Music LLC with the Lang Lang International Music Foundation Presents Lang Lang at Carnegie Hall with Maestro Christophe Eschenbach and the Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchesterra in a Benefit Concert to Support Unicef Relief Efforts in Haiti, a special program featuring two piano concertos: Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 17 in G Major and Prokofiev's Piano No. 3 in C Major.

On Sunday, March 21st at 8:30PM, three generations of classical artists - acclaimed pianist Lang Lang, legendary conductor Christoph Eschenbach and the Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra - come together at Carnegie Hall for a benefit concert aiding UNICEF in their efforts to bring relief to the children surviving the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Eschenbach and Lang Lang had scheduled a 21-city North American tour celebrating their decade-long artistic collaboration, but when the devastating news of the earthquake broke, the artists felt compelled to bring their concert to New York for one night to support UNICEF's efforts in Haiti.

The Schleswig-Holstein Festival Orchestra founded by the great American conductor, Leonard Bernstein will make its long awaited New York debut. The program features Beethoven's "Leonora No. 3" Overture, Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 17 in G Major, Prokofiev's Symphony No. 1 (Classique) in D Major and Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Major.
