 PER LA PACE<br /><br />La &ldquo;Palestine Youth Orchestra&rdquo; finalment
 e in Italia!</strong><br /><br />Ma il nostro, il vostro, il tuo aiuto &egr
 ave; indispensabile!&nbsp; <br /><br />Tala, Naseem, Layale&hellip; 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. Sar&agrave; la prima tourn&eacute;e
  italiana della PYO, fondata nel 2004 dall&rsquo;Edward Said National Conse
 rvatory of Music con lo scopo di riunire musicisti palestinesi residenti in
  tutto il mondo. La tourn&eacute;e in Italia &egrave; coordinata dal Conser
 vatorio di Musica &ldquo;Niccol&ograve; Paganini&rdquo; di Genova con la co
 llaborazione del Conservatorio di Musica &ldquo;Santa Cecilia&rdquo; di Rom
 a e della Oslo Philarmonic Orchestra.<br /><br />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&deg; agosto e a&nbsp; Ravello il 2 agosto. Quindici giovani musicis
 ti italiani si esibiranno insieme a questo fantastico gruppo.<br /><br />Un
 &rsquo;occasione imperdibile, un momento di grande libert&agrave; e condivi
 sione.&nbsp; 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.<br /><br />Perch&e
 acute; la resistenza palestinese &egrave; 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 pi&ugrave;,
  che hanno dato la vita per la libert&agrave;, o che hanno lasciato comunqu
 e qualcosa: un luogo, anche solo dell&rsquo;anima, da coltivare e tramandar
 e, come la musica.<br /><br />Aiutateci a sostenere questa impresa meravigl
 iosa, partecipate ai concerti, per conoscerli,&nbsp; riconoscerli ed applau
 dirli. <br /><br />Ma potete fare di pi&ugrave;: vi chiediamo di versare un
  vostro contributo perch&eacute; sono ancora necessari fondi per&nbsp; le s
