THE WORLD PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA (WPO), IS A UNIQUE CONCEPT FOUNDED ON THE PRINCIPLE OF USING MUSIC AS THE HIGHEST FORM OF UNIVERSAL COMMUNICATION. AS SUCH, SERIES OF INTERCONTINENTAL CONCERTS SERVE AS INSTRUMENTS OF UNITY, PEACE, AND FRATERNITY TO THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD.

LEADERS FROM THE MAJOR NATIONAL ORCHESTRAS OF ALL CONTINENTS ARE BROUGHT TOGETHER, CREATING AN UNPRECEDENTED UNITY BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN OF ALL NATIONALITIES AND ALL CULTURES, FOUNDED ON THEIR MUTUAL LOVE OF MUSIC.

MEMBERS OF THE WPO ARE NAMED BY THEIR RESPECTIVE ORCHESTRAS AS DELEGATES TO REPRESENT THEIR COUNTRIES AS MUSICAL AMBASSADORS. THEIR PERFORMANCE IS VOLUNTARY, A GIFT TO BENEFIT THE LEAST FAVOURED CHILDREN.

ALL COUNTRIES ARE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EVENT. IF A COUNTRY DOES NOT HAVE ITS OWN SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA, IT MAY BE REPRESENTED BY A MUSICIAN NATIVE TO THAT COUNTRY, EVEN IF HE IS A MEMBER OF ANOTHER COUNTRY'S ORCHESTRA.

THE WORLD PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA'S ESSENTIEL VOCATION IS TO MULTIPLY THE BONDS OF FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN COUNTRIES. IT MAY NEVER BE USED FOR PURPOSES OTHER THAN THOSE DEFINED IN THE PRESENT CHARTER.

THE MOST DISTINGUISHED AND APPROPRIATE AUTHORITIES AT THE HIGHEST INTERNATIONAL LEVELS LEND VALIDITY TO AND SUPPORT THE INTEGRITY OF THIS WORLD-WIDE ENDEAVOR.
