The concert on Sunday evening was organised by the culture ministry, the Polish Royal Opera, Polish Catholic charity Caritas Polska, the Royal Łazienki Museum and the Polish public television broadcaster.
The event was broadcast by state television.
A similar concert held early last year raised almost PLN 1 million (currently around USD 265,000, EUR 230,000) to help those who have suffered in Syria.
