Daniel Hope's second "Tu was!" (Do Something!) campaign, supported by His Royal Highness, Prince Charles

“Tu was!” (Do Something!), August 28th, Ulrichshusen Castle

Daniel Hope, baritone  Thomas Quasthoff, trumpeter Till Brönner  and the  NDR Bigband aim to “do something!” about climate change.

On August 28 at 5 p.m. CET, some of Europe's finest musicians from a variety of genres will come together to perform a special concert for an important cause.  With the call to action „Tu was!”, these exciting artists seek to raise awareness about climate protection inspired by the “Rainforest Project”, a foundation dedicated to ending rainforest destruction founded by His Royal Highness Prince Charles, who himself is supporting the concert.

The concert will take place in the scenic Renaissance castle of Ulrichshusen in north-eastern Germany, a beloved venue of Festspiele Mecklenburg-Vorpommern; this “Tu was!” concert is a part of the Festspiele’s 2010 Season. Alongside Hope, Brönner and Quasthoff, pianist Sebastian Knauer and clarinettist David Orlowsky will also participate in the event.

The “Tu was!” concert series, both initiated and programmed by Daniel Hope, features benefit events for a variety of causes.

This “Tu was!” concert finds strong support from both Federal Environment Minister Dr. Norbert Röttgen, the federally-funded “Klima sucht Schutz” (Climate seeks protection) campaign, and "Be keen go green", the first certified climate protection brand.
