Greetzzz...

I hope not, Evolution was week in my opinion

I like that Egyptian version of "Revolution", dude!

Greetzzz...

I like the Docklands the most, but aren't we going a bit offtopic now?

Dear friends
The repetitions for the Morocco concert have started.
Claude Samard works on the contacts with and arrangements for local musicians. He's working with a group of fantastic singers from morocco who really "swing"
Patrick Pelamourges and Claude Samard will leave on sunday to work with the new friends from morocco. It's very interesting to hear the pieces usually programmed in the synth played by local musicians. Francis is currently working on some basses which are reprogrammed to fit the new rhythms. A few titles will be revisited for the occasion, Revolution and Chronologie 6. And the producer Alain Bilowus is doing something with infrastructure but I don't understand exactly what...

And what does JMJ do?

A few questions here:

Does anybody knows what the occasion is for this concert.
mostly there is something to be celebrated...

Is the concert also being broadcasted on the internet?
Like the concert in gdansk was,so we can all watch it @ our homes...

Greetz,Marco

Drinking coffee, lurking around, thinking about a holiday at the Bahama's...

The name of the concert is "Water For Life"!

Greetzzz...

The theme was also revealed, but now I don't know if I am allowed to say it, if the other messages about it have been removed.

Un concert de Jean-Michel Jarre au Sahara marocain contre la désertification

Agence France-Presse

PARIS

Le musicien français Jean-Michel Jarre, ambassadeur de bonne volonté de l'Unesco, donnera un concert le 16 décembre dans le décor naturel des dunes de sable du Sahara marocain, à Merzouga, pour célébrer "l'eau, source de vie", a annoncé lundi l'Unesco.

Nous voulons "tirer la sonnette d'alarme", a déclaré le compositeur de musique électronique. "Que les gens réalisent combien l'eau est précieuse et combien il est important de prendre soin de ce que nous possédons", a ajouté Jean-Michel Jarre, cité par l'Organisation des Nations unies pour l'éducation, la science et la culture (Unesco).

"Si chacun comprenait à quel point les ressources en eau de la Terre sont limitées, combien de personnes en sont privées - et finissent par en mourir - ou encore l'étendue de leur gaspillage, nous pourrions peut-être trouver de meilleures façons de les gérer et de les partager. Le problème de la désertification est intimement lié à cette situation et requiert l'adoption de mesures urgentes", a ajouté le musicien."

Yes, the usual blabla about it....but thanks anyway
The only important thing is : it is against the desertification, and the concert is called "L'Eau, Source De Vie", and it'll be the 16th December
