Palestinian Authority banishes Christmas Choir


Choir caught in disharmony -Tim Franks

The Choir of Clare College, Cambridge [pictured above], will be singing Bach's Christmas Oratorio with the Israel Camerata Orchestra this week.

But the choir will not be able to perform in East Jerusalem or Bethlehem in the West Bank after a protest by the London-based Palestine Solidarity Campaign and the Palestinian Authority against the choir's tour of Israel.
