The "Islamo-Christian AVE"An inspired arrangement of Ave Maria accompanied by the Adhan "Allah Akbar". An

(Annonciation Day) as National Islamo-Christian Holiday in Lebanon.
Co-Arrangement: Tania Kassis & Michel Fadel

Main performances of this great song:
* At the big Opening of the VIth Francophony Games that
took place at the "Cité Sportive" in Beirut and that was attended by
30,000 persons as well as the Lebanese President Michel Sleimane, the
French First Minister François Fillon, Mr Abdou Diouf, the Prince Albert
II of Monaco and other lebanese and international personalities. Tania
Kassis sang her "Islamo-Christian AVE " to represent the city of BEIRUT!
* On February 14th 2010, Tania Kassis has been asked by the Lebanese Prime Minister Mr Saad
Hariri to sing the Islamo-Christian AVE at the Martyr Square during the big commemoration of Rafic
Hariri’s death in front of more than 200,000 persons. Following this performance, the Pope
Benoît XVI asked the Prime Minister to send him a copy of this common prayer!
* Tania Kassis had the chance to sing this wonderful song around the world: Paris, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, South Korea, ect...
What people think about it
Beautiful…….could be a symbol of what the
ideal, people of different backgrounds and religions live together in
harmony…like this music, represents two different religions, but
harmonious and fantastic together….
Beautiful Lebanon must hold the torch and
lead the way toward unity and brotherhood for all great religions. It
was once possible for all faiths to live peacefully. We can do it again
.

SHE IS LEBANESE!!! GOOOO TANIAAA WE LOVE U!
I’ve appreciated a lot this muslim
christian mix they’ve done… and as a Jew, I think that they could add
some Jewish music to this wonderful clip … in my opinion, it is so
appropriate in our days clips like this one … we all can’t forget that
אדוני אחד – ADONAI ECHAD (Lord is One) … PEACE ON EARTH!
