Tartous - Syria
Urjwan choir was launched in September 2015 in Tartous City - Syria as a choir group for harmonically distributed singing. The Adutl choir Includes More Than 60 amateurs, who belong to various social, scientific and cultural groups and segments: school and university students, employees, teachers, engineers, doctors, parents ... and from different denominations and religions of Syrian society and Syrian Cities and Governorates, who were brought together, due to war conditions, in the City of Tartous.
