Tonight I sat with a Jewish rabbi and a Muslim imam along with about 20 young people - 10 from Israel (Jews, Muslims and Christians) - and 10 from across the USA.

I am so grateful for this encounter and look to build links with Music in Common. It is a little sign of hope in a sea of tears and fears.
