We are thrilled to host WEGA's 30th Anniversary Benefit Concert at Altrimenti on April 9, 2025. This special evening is dedicated to celebrating the incredible impact WEGA has made over the past 30 years, with all proceeds supporting their new project in Tamil Nadu, India, aimed at empowering local women and farmers.
This concert promises to be a remarkable evening, featuring Ali Hirèche, one of the world's most acclaimed pianists, and Cipriano De Guzmán Jr., an award-winning baritone whose voice has captivated audiences worldwide.
A brilliant pianist, Ali Hirèche has captivated audiences worldwide with his expressive interpretations and technical mastery. Born in Paris, he studied under Antonio Ruiz-Pipó before perfecting his craft at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi in Milan and the Accademia di Imola, working with some of the greatest pianists of our time. Winner of prestigious international competitions, he has performed in renowned venues across Italy, France, Germany, Austria, and South Africa, appearing with leading orchestras and at major festivals. His recordings—ranging from Chopin's Études and Brahms' Variations to Schumann's Kreisleriana and Liszt's Sonata—have been met with widespread critical acclaim.
His music is an emotional journey, blending virtuosity with deep artistic sensitivity, promising an unforgettable experience for all.
Joining Ali Hirèche is the talented Cipriano De Guzmán Jr., a highly acclaimed opera singer, who has won multiple international vocal competitions in New York, London, Rome, Tokyo, and Lugano, and has graced the stage at Carnegie Hall, New York. His powerful and resonant voice has brought to life operatic roles such as Escamillo in Carmen, Silvio in Pagliacci, and Enrico in Lucia di Lammermoor.
Recognized for his artistry across Europe, the U.S., and Asia, Cipriano is also deeply committed to charitable initiatives, using his music to support social causes worldwide.

Who is WEGA?
WEGA is approved by the MAEE (Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs) as a non-governmental development organization (ONG-D). It was founded in 1995 and started its activities with humanitarian actions in Eastern Europe following the sudden rise in poverty due to the collapse of social policies. It turned gradually to development projects improving the environment of deprived communities. Most projects were implemented in the Philippines as the organization developed strong ties with the Filipino community in Luxembourg. Lately it aspires to develop programs involving academic research and the private sector.
Your participation is essential to support the launch of new programs. The proceeds will be used for a new project in South India targeting vulnerable women, mostly widows, in partnership with one of the most respected NGOs in India: Assefa, a Gandhian organization that has improved the life of millions of women over 50 years.
