Hymn for an Afghan shepherd

Strange things can happen.
Nemat was once an Afghan shepherd who watched 200 sheeps in the Afghan mountains. He could sit around for hours, entertaining the sheeps with a small guitar with only two strings.

Many years later he found himself in a Norwegian kitchen. One late Saturday night. In a party. In the Arctic, small town Vadsø. So far up north that he could not understand how far it actually was.
There he played a similar guitar. Suddenly together with a Norwegian guy singing Norwegian songs.

Then, tonight he visited this Norwegian. To practice for a concert the next day. Playing traditional, Afghan guitar together with an old, Norwegian hymn.

It will all happen Saturday 22.10 in Vadsø. Almost every musician in town will participate in a charity concert. To raise money to help women suffering from violence throughout the world.

Lot`s of music. And an Afghan/Norwegian mixture.
