Concierto de Arenjuez / Li Beirut
Music from Joaquin Rodrigo sung by Firuz
All pictures are made by me, when we were in Lebanon just after the civil war had ended.
I walked from Furn-el Chebbak along the Rue de Damas until I reached Place des Martyres (also known as Place des Canon).
I made this walk twice and the second time Uncle William was with me. You might see him o his car on one or two of the pictures.
I fell in love with this city even as it was a ruin and I also fell in love with the music of Magida El Roumy and Fairouz
Bayreuth has been rebuilt since and I'm sure we will be back there one some day
