OMG, this is so important! I hope that those who attended and consider themselves patrons of the arts will open up their pocketbooks and help to support these people as they try to rebuild the Iraqi arts.

Wonderful - outstanding! I'd be curious to know what all repertoire they played.

This is great. Why are the contrabasses in the middle in back? It's an unusual orchestral layout.
