Muscatine Kosovo Project

In 2003 the Muscatine (Iowa) Children’s and Youth Choirs initiated an exchange program with youth in war-torn Gjakovë, Kosovo. The Kosovar youth participate in the Kosovo Children’s Music Initiative, which is sponsored by the Shropshire Music Foundation. In 2004, 12 youths from Gjakovë spent two weeks in and around Muscatine. On July 25, 2005, 32 Muscatine residents including choir members departed for a two-week journey to Gjakovë, Kosovo. This is our story.

The Muscatine and Kosovar choirs performed at Camp Bondsteel on August 6th. Our host for the afternoon was SFC Duff McFadden, a Wilton High School graduate. He sent Keith Porter a brief note today and some photos.

"Thanks for a wonderful concert. I've heard nothing but high praise from the command group and all who attended the concert. Again, thanks for a great show and a great time with the kids." -SFC Duff McFadden, Public Affairs Office, Camp Bondsteel
