Jerusalem, June 27th, 2010

at the Austrian Hospice (rooftop) – still quiet just awaking. It´s going to be a nice day! But you will see a much different sunrise on Friday, July 9th in Jericho at the Sunrise Concert on Mount of Temptation.

Something not to be missed…

Jerusalem, June 26th, 2010

We are very happy that Pei-Jee Ng and Stefan Heckel arrived today. Pei-Jee was taking the night flight and strolled into the Austrian Hospice at 5 am in the morning… Stefan took the little easier way and was arriving in the afternoon.

So we could enjoy the first rehearsal for tomorrows opening concerts and sneaked in to take a little video for you. Enjoy as we did
