Petition: RNCM Reverse The Concert Cancellation of The Gilad Atzmon & The OHE
Please join this battle for elementary freedom
“Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent.”
― Victor Hugo
It is our understanding that due to pressure from the Zionist Lobby group, the North West Friends of Israel, the concert was cancelled due to a "safety" issue.
We... the musicians, artists, listeners, citizens of Britain and the world say:
- No to intimidation
- No to censorship
- No to political pressure
- And, that we all must protect the principles of a free society
If the Royal Northern College of Music is committed to keeping Britain a free country, let music and speech flow freely. We call upon the RNCM to immediately reschedule Gilad Atzmon & The Orient House Ensemble’s concert.
We ask the RNCM to not set a precedence in succumbing to pressure and bullying from external forces. Music is one of the few spaces where anything and everything is able to be expressed without the threat of censorship or intimidation.
