How it was at the international concert of Byzantine music “The joy of Resurrection”, 2008.05.29?

On 29^th of May, 2008, I went to (and helped a bit in the organizing of) the international concert of Byzantine music “The joy of Resurrection”. Bellow you’ll find some videos I’ve made at the event.

The event took place at the Palace Hall (Sala Palatului).

The interpreters were “Balada Bucovinei” group, Doina LAVRIC, Valeria PETER-PREDESCU, Elisabeta TICUTA and priest Marius-Ciprian POP.
