A school of rock and roll for the children of war. We are in Mitrovica.
20 years after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Mitrovica has become the
new Berlin of Europe,
divided not by bricks and mortar but by the river Ibar: on one side the
Albanians on the other the Serbs. In the middle a new school of rock
and roll, which brings
back the glorious past of Mitrovica, once renowned in the Balkan area
as one of the “capitals of rock”. The project began in October 2009 ,
an idea of the Dutch NGO
“Musicians with no Frontiers”, aiming at rebuilding the cultural makeup
of the city and communication between the two sides using the universal
language of music.
