Rosanne Cash & John Leventhal announce Gala Concert in aid of Musician Treatment Foundation

Rosanne Cash & John Leventhal have announced a Gala Concert set to take place at the National Concert Hall on Thursday, June 13, 2024. The concert supports the launch of the Musician Treatment Foundation in Ireland.

The concert promises a night of music featuring three Grammy-award-winning musicians: Rosanne Cash, John Leventhal, and Aoife O’Donovan. Together, they will raise funds for the Musician Treatment Foundation (MTF) in Ireland, dedicated to providing orthopaedic care for musicians needing treatment for shoulder, elbow, and hand injuries.

Founded as a nonprofit in the US in July 2017 by orthopaedic surgeon Dr. Alton Barron, MTF offers free upper limb orthopaedic care to professional musicians through its Physicians for Musicians network. With a board of directors including Elvis Costello and Diana Krall, MTF has provided over $2.7 million worth of care to hundreds of injured musicians.

Speaking about the launch of the Musician Treatment Foundation in Ireland, Dr. Barron said:
“We are grateful for this benefit concert in the magical city of Dublin thanks to Rosanne Cash and John Leventhal, two of the most talented and generous musicians you will ever meet. Musicians are sacred treasures for all cultures and peoples. This international collaboration of American, Irish-American, and Irish musicians reflects and reinforces the beauty, richness, and hope of our countries and cultures.”

Tickets for the event, starting at €49.50, will be available for purchase starting Thursday, April 18, at 10 am on www.nch.ie.
