UN Chamber Music Society: HARMONY Concert & Album Launch in Celebration of the UN's 80th Anniversary



UN Chamber Music Society presents HARMONY – Global Electronic Music Concert & Album Launch in Celebration of the 80th Anniversary of the United Nations. On Wednesday, 17 December 2025, in commemoration of the 80th Anniversary of United Nations, the UN Chamber Music Society will present its first global electronic music album – HARMONY. Electronic music is a universal language that has brought people together from all over the world, spreading peace, positivity and inclusivity. The UN Chamber Society is embarking on an ambitious project, re-interpreting electronic music into a lush orchestral setting, as newly arranged and performed by the musicians of the UN Chamber Music Society. The project will encompass an album release with re-interpreted arrangements of music from some of the world’s most cutting-edge electronic artists, and culminating in a high-profile virtual concert in commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the United Nations, which will be broadcasted internationally through the global platforms of the United Nations: UN Web TV and UN YouTube. The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter. The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world. But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity. The music programme of HARMONY will feature and celebrate electronic music works, integrated with classical music arrangements, from all regional groups of the world, representing an artistic tapestry of musicians from diverse backgrounds. HARMONY will feature newly arranged and performed orchestral interpretations of works by some of the world's most innovative electronic artists, including ARTBAT, Paul van Dyk, Kiesza, KSHMR & Marnik, Lachi, Francis Mercier, Mr Tout Le Monde, Sultan + Shepard, and Julio Victoria. By celebrating the works of composers from diverse backgrounds, we help to realign the world of electronic music – symbolizing our hopes of building bridges of understanding of human rights. Founded in 2016 by Brenda Vongova, the UN Chamber Music Society of the United Nations Staff Recreation Council is dedicated to promoting the United Nations’ goals and values at large - through the universal language of music. 100% of the UN Chamber Music Society’s streams of HARMONY will be donated to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs sym.ffm.to/un_harmony
