IRAQ - SYMPHONY - ORCHESTRA

IRAQ - SYMPHONY - ORCHESTRA
Iraqi Armenian Annie Melconian practices a score on her violin during a rehearsal of the Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra 04 June 2003 in Baghdad. The orchestra is practicing for their first performance, slated for July, since the war to topple Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. "I came to the orchestra and I have stayed with it out of love," said Melconian, a 24-year-old second violinist. "But things are difficult. My father brings me here and stays to drive me home because of the danger on the streets," she said. AFP PHOTO/Timothy A. CLARY
