The
ticket sales for the “ISounds Concert” Paris
concert raised 980€.
This
money was sent
to an
organisation in Benin, Africa, that provides
medicines for children infected with the AIDS
virus.
The
proceeds of the sales of the “Play it Again......” CD
will be given to an association which is
attempting to reduce the suffering experienced by
animals in modern “factory” farms: calves, pigs,
ducks (foie gras), foxes in fur farms etc. and to
the anti-bullfighting campaign.
Cheques will be given to the “Protection Mondiale
des Animaux de Ferme” (which is the French
branch of “Compassion in World Farming”)
and the
"Le Comité Radicalement Anti Corrida" (CRAC).
Their web sites will give you an idea of the work
these associations are doing:

problems, see also

The
musicians and all concerned in the production of
the concert and CD hope you enjoy the music… and
that will come back for more next year !
