STUNNING violin performance by award-winning Qingzhu Weng, as we fly over Sahara and the Mediterranean.


Qingzhu Weng won the International BachFest 2022 competition, with this stunning performance of the Violin Partita #2 in D minor: Chaconne movement, by Johann Sebastian Bach. Considered one of the most challenging works for violin, the performance is superb.

For the Earth path, we selected a flight starting with the Atlantic coast, passing over the Sahara, the Mediterranean Sea, Italy and on to Ukraine. Please enjoy and care for Earth.
