Our remit is to support young musicians in Palestine. We are immensely concerned about the destruction in Gaza and hope that our musicians, there and in the West Bank, are safe.

We are grateful to Bill Law at Arab Digest for this excellent piece, giving the Palestinian point of view: (please click on the title to link through): ‘Notes from a cancelled music event’ . Arab Digest have kindly made it FREE to read.
