Abstract:
In my country of Kosovo, where we endured 10 years of terrible conflict, even in the most difficult of times songs were created speaking of freedom. As children sang these songs, it brought them hope for a better life in the future. When the conflict came to an end and peace was established in 1999, a special concert (the first classical concert in 10 years) brought 600 people together with glorious music to heal our souls and give us the hope and strength to move forward.
