MRS and Fontys Rock Academy (Tilburg)

During the first week of March 2010, the Fontys Rock Academy in Tilburg, the Netherlands, will host seven rock musicians from Kosovo. The musicians are Serbs and Albanians from the flashpoint city of Mitrovica (Kosovo). Together, they have set up the Mitrovica Rock School, a rock music school for youth from both sides of the divided city.
