Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich is receiving new support: Following the long-standing and successful collaboration with Credit Suisse, LGT Private Banking is now getting involved.
Credit Suisse has generously supported the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich as its main sponsor since 1986, and the collaboration has been gratifying in every respect over the years. Even during the Corona period, Credit Suisse did not abandon the orchestra. Due to the current situation of Credit Suisse, the Tonhalle-Gesellschaft Zürich AG has decided not to continue negotiations on the extension of the contract, which expires on 31 July 2023.
For the Tonhalle-Gesellschaft Zürich AG, it is extremely positive news that LGT Private Banking is now the main sponsor of the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich; the partnership has initially been agreed for two years.
For Heinrich Henckel, CEO of LGT Bank Switzerland, the new commitment fits perfectly into the portfolio: «We have been committed to art and music for years – be it as a partner of the Princely Collections or the LGT Young Soloists. Now we are very pleased to also accompany the Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich on its musical journey.»
The Tonhalle-Gesellschaft Zürich is also delighted about the new collaboration: «We are extremely grateful that LGT Private Banking will be taking on the partnership at such short notice and in such an uncomplicated way for an initial period of two years,» says Martin Vollenwyder, President of the Tonhalle-Gesellschaft Zürich. «They are an ideal partner for us, as they have been committed to classical music for years. We would like to thank Credit Suisse for their always open and creative collaboration over the past decades.»
LGT is a leading international private banking and asset management group that has been owned by the Princely Family of Liechtenstein for over 90 years. As of 31.12.2022, LGT managed assets of CHF 287.2 billion (USD 310.4 billion) for high net worth private clients and institutional investors. LGT employs over 4900 people in more than 25 locations in Europe, Asia, America, Australia and the Middle East.
