The sold-out fundraising event, “Talking Windows,” welcomed a broad spectrum of talent to lend a special touch to entertain the generous and supportive guests. After warm welcomes from the evening’s emcees, Rita Lamaa and Silvio Chiha, attendees enjoyed a theatrical performance by ‘The Little Match Girl’ who walked around the attendees and told her story. The great countertenor Mateo Khodor and rising star MarittaHallani also launched the event’s entertainment line-up, while an enchanting set from Pianist Michel Fadeland his orchestra charmed guests throughout the remainder of the night.
