ANDREA BOCELLI in Alexandria

Andrea Bocelli in concert in Egypt???

Well, it looks as if it is not an hoax, even if advertisement has been low key to say the least. I got this news from reliable sources but, curiously, it is not yet on the BA website nor has appeared, to my knowledge, on any magazine.

So, if all goes well, Andrea Bocelli is going to sing in the Great Hall of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina together with the BA orchestra conducted by Sherif Mohie Eldin, on Saturday, October 11 2008.

Tickets are available at the BA’s Tickets Window and in Cairo’s Virgin Megastore: Tickets prices 1000 – 500 – 250 EGP

Yes, I know this is the CAIRO live events guide, but how could I pass in silence such an event? A weekend in Alexandria capped with a concert like this sounds like a good tip, does it not?
