Sponsors

The Ministry of Education, Culture and Science and the Turing Foundation are the two fundamental donors that support the Ricciotti. However, to support their tours, the orchestra also depends upon other, specific subsidies and sponsoring. 

The Ricciotti has always been able to offer their concerts for free, and the goal is to always keep it that way. That's the only way that we can realistically fulfil our objective of making the music accessible for absolutely everyone. Travel expenses, food and accommodations for forty people can be expensive.  Our goal is fantastic: making people happy by playing our music in the craziest places we can think of. If you also appreciate this goal, we'd like to ask that you consider making a contribution to support us.

If you'd like to make a contribution to the Ricciotti, please contact:

Turing Foundation, primary sponsor
The Turing Foundation is Ricciotti's primary sponsor. It is a well-known philanthropic organisation, established in 2006. Pieter Geelen and his wife established the Turing Foundation with the proceeds derived when TomTom NV, a company Geelen helped establish, went public on the stock exchange for the first time. The Foundation focuses its support on: 

  • the education of children and youth;
  • the protection of nature;
  • the enjoyment of art and music;
  • the battle against leprosy.

The Ricciotti is honoured by the Turing Foundation's sponsorship. The orchestra will use the funds provided to help specifically direct efforts towards reaching and enchanting the Turing Foundation's primary audiences.
