A key component of LANXESS’ social commitment

To bring together young people from different cultures through traditional and contemporary music of the highest quality – that has always been the inspiration for the “LANXESS Young Euro Classic China Concerts”. Since 2007, when LANXESS introduced Young Euro Classic into China, the event has magnetized the most talented young musicians from Germany and China to perform in China’s major cities every year. The Beijing performance in 2007 was attended by Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao and German Chancellor Angela Merkel in a special event celebrating the 35th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and Germany.

To celebrate the Green Rubber Day, the Young Euro Classic Ensemble China-Germany brought an exclusive performance to close the conference.
