The rehearsals are being carried out under the direction of Paul Bateman at the Mediterranean Conference Centre. There will be other rehearsals tomorrow and on Saturday.

The concert, organised by Nng Promotions, will be followed with another by Laura Pausini on Tuesday. Both are being held at the Luxol Grounds.
