Beethovens Heidi and Shirwan in a concert in Baghdad

The 4th. Movement of Beethovens 9th. Symphony by Heidi and Shirwan among other children in a concert in Baghdad

I always believe that assiduity and determination in the most difficult situations leads to the most challenging results. This is how Iraqi children living their days here. Do they have an alternative?
Heidi, who she is only 11 years old and Shirwan, who he is 9 years old playing violin among other children from different ages in a concert held in Al-Rasheed Hotel in Baghdad on the 3rd of April, 2009. This concert was conducted by the Iraqi National Symphony Academy (NGO) raising the slogan I care to emphasis on their need to receive further support for better, peaceful and shiny future.
