The Palestine Symphony from MEM Music combines European classical movements with martial and Middle Eastern themes to bring us a powerful reminder of the history of Palestine. These invigorating compositions are a great accompaniment for planning or participating letter writing campaigns and other peaceful political action. We can be the change!
