Singaporean-born Indian conductor, George Mathew, started the global humanitarian concerts at Carnegie Hall in 2006, which would grow into Music for Life International over the next few years. The first three concerts were held under the auspices of independent presenters and fiscal sponsors. With Beethoven for the Indus Valley, Music for Life International begins a new tradition of transformational concerts for the most pressing issues of our time.
