The Pianist From Syria

Part of a series on The Healing Power of Music

I want to share this conversation with Aeham Ahmad. Some may remember his star turn on YouTube - when Yarmouk camp near the Syrian capital, Damascus, was besieged by the regime.

This was a searing image at the time:

Aeham’s parents are in this picture. He and his family managed to escape to Germany - where he wrote a book - which has sold 40K copies in German - has been translated to 10 languages.
