Burgan Bank, one of the highest contributors to society, is the main season sponsor of the upcoming performances by one of Kuwait’s most prestigious music and arts organizations, Ahmadi Music Group. A sponsor for four consecutive years, Burgan Bank remains a strong advocate of arts and music deeply committed to promoting cultural enrichment and exchange.

Performing with the highest musical standards, the Ahmadi Music Group, operational locally and internationally for over 65 years, has conducted famed concerts and performances on world-renowned platforms. The Group has made recent efforts to contribute more vigorously to the cultural life of Kuwait by performing both significant choral works and also fully-staged opera. Burgan Bank had previously sponsored the first ever classical music performance by Ahmadi Music Group at Jaber Al Ahmed Cultural Center for two complete symphonies by Beethoven and Faure, marking a historic and proud moment for Kuwait.

The bank’s support of the reputable and longest standing arts group in Kuwait stems from its strong-held belief that arts and music create a positive impact on culture, quality of life, and the country as a whole. Burgan Bank encourages the new generations to benefit from the group’s international expertise and reiterates its commitment to empower Kuwait’s multi-talented youth by providing them with a one of a kind opportunity to explore their love for the art in the midst of experienced mentors.

Music is a cultural language which brings nations and people together. More importantly, it is an extricable link that strengthens social bonds between communities. Considered one of the oldest and most demonstrative art forms, music has played a leading role in developing overall wellbeing and happiness around the world.

Burgan Bank's support of this initiative falls under its dynamic full-fledged community program entitled ‘ENGAGE’ – Together to be the change. This program sheds light on important aspects affecting every segment of the society by promoting social welfare through educational, cultural and health driven initiatives. Burgan Bank’s approach to 'ENGAGE' begins with a vital principle that as a leading Kuwaiti financial institution, its conduct and policies should be aligned with the needs and interests of the community.
