Legacy Giving

Leave a Lasting Gift

If our concerts have inspired musical joy in your life, your legacy gift can let that beauty endure far beyond your own lifetime. By making a gift in your Will, your passion for our music will resonate with generations of music-lovers and help sustain the exceptional artists who bring our performances to life.

A gift of any size creates a lasting impact. Your generosity can ignite new possibilities, realise ambitious artistic projects, and safeguard the excellence that defines the Brandenburg for generations to come.

We would be honoured to speak with you about creating an enduring legacy that reflects your love of music and your belief in its future. A confidential conversation is always welcome.

The Brandenburg has given me such pleasure and enriched my life, so I was happy to include them in my Will. I’d like to encourage other Brandenburg devotees to do so where possible – it’s straightforward to make happen and does not affect your standard of living.
