Human Rights Foundation denounces Gustavo Dudamel

Human Rights Foundation denounces Gustavo Dudamel

The HRF, an international charity dedicated to protecting human rights under authoritarian regimes, has issued the following message:

Last night, Gustavo Dudamel, the famous Venezuelan conductor, gave a concert directing the Maduro regime’s top youth orchestra at Carnegie Hall in New York City.

HRF was present as well, to remind the world of Maduro’s fraud and to call out Dudamel for engaging in shameless propaganda and providing cover for the Venezuelan dictator.

This can only get noisier when Dudamel takes over next year as music director of the New York Philharmonic.
