Benefit concert before Pink Shoe Day
Augustusplatz was full of pink shoes a year ago - Leipzig experienced its first Pink Shoe Day. On the eve of the second edition, Albrecht Buchmann, a doctor in the oncology department at the St. Georg Hospital, is now organizing a benefit concert. The organizer of living room jazz concerts is gathering an exclusive band for the occasion:
Werner Neumann (g), Arne Donadell (p), Paul Tetzlaff (dr), Carolina Jass (voc)
The entrance fee is 10 euros. But if you bring a pink shoe, you only pay 5 euros, because 75,000 shoes are to be collected for the big installation the next day on Augustusplatz, corresponding to the number of new cases of breast cancer per year.
