Sting will give his first concert in Jordan

British singer Sting will give his first concert in Jordan on April 22, AFP reports. The organizers of this event expect to gather about 5 thousand spectators. The guest of honor at the concert will be the Algerian singer Cheb Mani - together with Sting they will sing the polar song "Rose in the Desert". The concert will take place at a private university in Amman. Proceeds from it will be donated to charity.

As the concert organizers told AFP in an interview, Sting also wanted to give a concert in one of the cities of Palestine, but he was dissuaded from doing so for security reasons.

Amman will be the second city to host a concert by the famous pop singer during his Middle East tour. The tour will begin in Dubai on April 19-20. The program also includes a concert in Egypt on April 25, which is planned to be held at the base of one of the pyramids.
