I will be going to Amman, Jordan to the largest Christian and Muslim school (yes, they both peacefully coexist) in the Middle East from May 7 - May 17 with members of the Lee University Symphonic Band to perform and teach. Should be an experience!
2 years ago we went to Guatemala and played everything from Christian Disco halls to huge outdoor amphitheater style (they couldn't afford to build) churches.

We were very well received, the concerts and teaching went smoothly for the most part, and the Jordanian people were absolutely wonderful. Here is the article published after our return, including a picture of Petra:
