Proceeds from Ian Gillan's charity concerts total AMD 18 mln 327 thousand

Proceeds from Ian Gillan's charity concerts with the Philharmonic Orchestra of Armenia totaled AMD 18 mln 327 thousand. The entire sum will be spent on construction of the building for Gyumri N6 music school, which is hosted in temporary shelters. The amount was ensured thanks to sponsorship of VivaCell-MTS mobile operator, which covered organizational expenses, and partnership with bmi.

The concerts, organized by Mediamax and Do Something in the framework of Rock Aid Armenia/Armenia Grateful 2 Rock project took place in Aram Khachaturian concert hall on March 26 and 27. A number of other projects will be realized in 2010 and 2011, aimed at raising funds for Gyumri music school.
