A moment of leisure for the patients of the "Businco" oncology hospital in Cagliari, for their families and for healthcare workers. Tomorrow, Saturday 9 December, at 10 am, in the conference room, the concert "Waiting for Christmas" is scheduled on the initiative of the Brotzu Company and the Sardinian association for cancer prevention and assistance.
At the center of the scene is Luigi Lai, master of launeddas, the guitarist Marcello Floris and the saxophonist Gavino Murgia who will offer a wide musical repertoire. A TV connection is provided to allow hospitalized people to follow the concert from the hospital rooms.
The association was founded in March 2009 by a group of doctors attentive and sensitive to the needs of patients in the hospital context. The president of the Association is Maria Teresa Ionta, medical oncologist.
«We want to offer – he explains – concrete support to those who are going through a difficult time. A way to express affection and solidarity. In this case, music can be a useful tool to alleviate suffering."
