"...Questa rivoluzione non è solo del
fucile, ma è:
la sensibilità di un poeta,
lo strume
nto di un musicista,
il pennello di un pittore,
il bisturi di un
chirurgo,
l'ago di una ragazza che rammenda la camicia di un feday
n o del suo marito". Yasser Arafat

ASSOCIAZIONE
PER LA PACE
La “Palestine Youth Orchestra” finalment
e in Italia!
Ma il nostro, il vostro, il tuo aiuto &egr
ave; indispensabile!
Tala, Naseem, Layale… sono gi
ovani, ragazzi e ragazze palestinesi, molti di loro cresciuti nei territori
palestinesi occupati, altri nei campi profughi del Libano, Giordania, Egit
to, Siria, altri ancora in Paesi del mondo dove i palestinesi sono esiliati
. Hanno studiato musica fin da piccoli, con determinazione, con gioia e con
molti sacrifici: sono i 60 elementi della Palestine Youth Orchestra, in to
ur in Italia dal 21 luglio al 2 agosto. Sarà la prima tournée
italiana della PYO, fondata nel 2004 dall’Edward Said National Conse
rvatory of Music con lo scopo di riunire musicisti palestinesi residenti in
tutto il mondo. La tournée in Italia è coordinata dal Conser
vatorio di Musica “Niccolò Paganini” di Genova con la co
llaborazione del Conservatorio di Musica “Santa Cecilia” di Rom
a e della Oslo Philarmonic Orchestra.
Con i loro violini e clari
netti saranno a Levanto il 28 Luglio, a Genova il 29, a Firenze il 30, a Ro
ma il 1° agosto e a Ravello il 2 agosto. Quindici giovani musicis
ti italiani si esibiranno insieme a questo fantastico gruppo.
Un
’occasione imperdibile, un momento di grande libertà e condivi
sione. Suoneranno per noi musica classica tradizionale, da Dvorak a B
eethoven, ma anche significative composizioni della tradizione palestinese
e araba, che forse molti di noi non hanno mai ascoltato.
Perch&e
acute; la resistenza palestinese è fatta anche di questo: di una gra
nde cultura e di una lunga tradizione che aiutano a capire tante cose. Sopr
attutto, la consapevolezza di un popolo che ama la sua terra e vuole contin
uare ad esistere, anche in nome di tutti coloro che non ci sono più,
che hanno dato la vita per la libertà, o che hanno lasciato comunqu
e qualcosa: un luogo, anche solo dell’anima, da coltivare e tramandar
e, come la musica.
Aiutateci a sostenere questa impresa meravigl
iosa, partecipate ai concerti, per conoscerli, riconoscerli ed applau
dirli.
Ma potete fare di più: vi chiediamo di versare un
vostro contributo perché sono ancora necessari fondi per le s
pese di viaggio di questi/e giovani artisti/e. Ecco le coordinate bancarie
su cui inviare un piccolo-grande contributo:
