For the first time, the renowned Monaco Boys Choir, Les Petits Chanteurs de Monaco, will perform in Cambodia this month, as part of an ongoing international tour.
The choir will perform in three cities, with all proceeds going to the Kantha Bopha Foundation, which provides free, high-quality pediatric care across the country.
“As part of their tour through Vietnam and Cambodia, the Cambodia leg of the tour features a special series of charity concerts, with all proceeds supporting the Kantha Bopha Foundation, which provides free and quality pediatric care to children across the country,” noted the organisers.
Founded in 1974, and under the patronage of His Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco, Les Petits Chanteurs de Monaco is known for its exceptional vocal talent and dedication to peace, fraternity and cultural exchange.
The concerts, taking place on July 19 in Siem Reap Sofitel Angkor Phokeethra Golf & Spa Resort, July 21 in Sihanoukville at Novotel Sihanoukville Holiday Resort and July 23 in Phnom Penh at the Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra, aim to raise funds for Kantha Bopha’s vital healthcare programmes.
The performances will showcase a diverse programme, including spiritual music, classical works and a heartfelt tribute to the choir’s founder, Prince Rainier III.
In honour of his centenary, the choir will perform his favorite piece, Le Campanile de Saint-Nicolas.
“The performances are supported by a network of local and institutional partners united by a shared commitment to promoting cultural exchange and community development,” said the organisers.
“Artistic collaborations during the concerts will feature the Sakara Traditional Khmer Performance Youth Group in Sihanoukville, and the Princess Buppha Devi Dance School in Phnom Penh,” they added.
Other supporters include Mengly J. Quach Education, Don Bosco Cambodia and the Italian Business Chamber of Cambodia, as well as All Dreams Cambodia, a local organisation dedicated to promoting choir music in the country.
Tickets for the concerts are priced at $30, with free admission for students and children under 18. All donations will go directly to the Kantha Bopha Foundation.
The tour promises to be an unforgettable celebration of music and charity, embodying the values of the Principality of Monaco, while supporting local causes.
