The soothing power of music: Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra back on stage.

I was surprised and amazed when I heard that the Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra is back on stage. I cannot imagine how tough must it be for the musicians to arrange the logistic, take care of their instruments, and find the right mood just to go out there and reharse. But perhaps this is just what musicians and spectators alike actually need, a soothing experience that bring you closer to the beauty of life, even if just for a couple of hours.
Good luck, INSO.
