The Foundation Joins in Supporting the Santa Cruz de la Sierra Philharmonic Orchestra

30 September, 2025

The musical institution has spent nearly a decade delivering outstanding performances and training artists.

The upcoming performance by the Santa Cruz de la Sierra Philharmonic Orchestra, titled “Heartbeats of the East”, will mark the beginning of a new cultural partnership: the National Safe Life Foundation has officially announced its support for the Orchestra, which over the past decade has established itself as a musical and educational reference in the region.

In this context, the Executive Director of the National Safe Life Foundation, Julio César Caballero, welcomed Rubén Darío Ortiz and Javier González, President and Vice President of the Santa Cruz de la Sierra Philharmonic Foundation, respectively, along with Ana Salek, Commercial Executive. During the meeting, Caballero expressed his satisfaction with the agreement reached: “I have witnessed the Orchestra’s interpretative quality; it is truly impressive. We recognize the enormous work they do in promoting culture and the arts, as well as in training Bolivian musicians.”

For his part, Ortiz highlighted that the institution he leads has spent nine years conveying the passion of more than 150 musicians: “Thanks to the sustained effort of an executive, administrative, and musical team, we’ve managed to consolidate a project that is now a cultural heritage of our city. None of this would be possible without strategic allies like you—without great companies and institutions such as the National Safe Life Foundation, who share the same vision and the same heartbeat: that of music, culture, and the essence of our people.”

Ortiz emphasized that the Philharmonic Orchestra was born with the goal of providing professional opportunities for musicians from Santa Cruz: “Our musicians decided—through sheer determination—to launch this project. They said: we’re not going to wait for someone to welcome us or decide to promote us; we’re going to build it ourselves. And now, those who fall in love with this dream, like the National Safe Life Foundation, are joining us. That is exactly what is happening.”
