Music for Medicine
11/29/2010 - By New York, NY

Music for Medicine

On Monday, November 29, 2010, The American Austrian Foundation hosted the annual “Music for Medicine” evening, benefitting the Salzburg Medical Seminars.

The evening began with a virtuoso performance in Zankel Hall at Carnegie Hall by Yefim Bronfman and Rainer Honeck, the Concertmaster of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. They performed Mozart’s Sonata KV 454 in B flat major and Beethoven’s Sonata #5 (The Spring Sonata), to much acclaim and a standing ovation.

Ambassador Christian Prosl, the Austrian Ambassador to the United States, bestowed the Austrian Cross of Honor for Science and Art 1st class upon John J. Caronna, MD, Kathleen M. Foley, MD, Richard B. Roberts, MD, and W. Shain Schley, MD, in recognition of their invaluable contributions to the success of the Salzburg Medical Seminars.

Following the performance and presentation, dinner was held at Carnegie Hall’s Rohatyn Room, and featured a raffle and a live auction hosted by Sotheby’s acclaimed Jamie Niven. Among the items up for grabs were a trip to Vienna with tickets to the Vienna Philharmonic Ball, a private concert with Rainer Honeck, vacation stays in Jamaica and Uruguay, Sisi Star Diamond earrings from A.E. Koechert, and an array of magnificent Swarovski jewelry. Thanks to Mr. Niven, the live auction was the most successful to date, raising over $50,000.
