"The best thing about giving gifts is the sparkle in the recipient's eyes."
Christmas, the season of love, fills our eyes with joy as we think not only of our second event in March '25, but also of the people who made this second event possible in the first place.
Behind foundations and companies are people who devote their wealth and energy to education, science, art and culture, social issues, environmental protection, healthcare, and much more.
For example, the Feith Foundation was established by Dr. Elisabeth Feith, who, as a philanthropist, had already been supporting a wide variety of public welfare causes before the foundation was established. She created the Feith Foundation to ensure that future generations would also benefit from her altruistic actions.
Doing good and keeping quiet about it – many other foundation founders have also taken this to heart. Companies take responsibility by setting up a foundation with which they want to give something back to society and shape the future. Private donors donate because their donations are multiplied in the hands of charitable organizations and thus do a lot of good.
They are all united by their conviction to create something lasting that connects and values people, that sets an example for freedom and justice, that creates and preserves values.
We are deeply impressed by this commitment to a better world and a sustainable society. We are convinced that culture and music are essential to this. We are very grateful that so many people and organizations support us in our efforts to promote art, music, culture, and ganz young talent.
They enable us to give gifts to many people in return: with care, attention, a great deal of personal commitment, and, last but not least, wonderful piano music of the highest standard!
In all the languages of our world, we wish you a Merry Christmas from the bottom of our hearts!
Your International Piano Competition Taunus e. V.
