I also heard about the Soldier's Tale. Original music is from Stravinsky.
Very very nice. Based on traditional Russian music with a little Gypsy inspiration.

A little extract.
If anybody is interrested I can upload the entire.
I also really would like to hear the music composed by Ahmed Mukhtar.

An article in The Observer

The Theatre site

Thank you very much Microber,
I think i'll book.
To resist against occupation nothing better than cultural weapons, and Iraqui music is a massive "construction" weapon.
Anybody else ??
