At the Sogo Fukushi Kaikan Hall in Ube, we held a ceremony to hand over instruments purchased using the money raised from tickets sold at the 16th UBE Classical Concert as well as donate the remaining proceeds.
This event has been held annually since 2008 as a part of our CSR initiatives, where all the money raised from sales at the UBE Classical Concert is given to various local music-related organizations. This time, tubas, clarinets, and other instruments were given to four junior high schools in Ube, and charitable donations were made to three organizations based in the city.
| Goal of Events (Aim) | With the catchphrase “Together with the city, together with music.”, we contribute to improving local music culture and educating the next generation. |
