But now let\u2019s take a step back in time to the final concert last year. It was\u00a0 at Villacidro (50 km from Cagliari in Sardinia). Here on 29 December 2011 Gen Rosso presented their<strong> concert <em>Indelible Dimension<\/em>.<\/strong> It was during the XXVth March for Peace, which took place in the light of recent troubles in Nigeria and Syria, events that show how much the search for peace needs a powerful helping hand.  <img alt=\"\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-53050\" style=\"margin-right: 10px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.focolare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/20120120-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"200\" \/>The theme of the march was <strong><em>Educating Young people in Justice and Peace<\/em><\/strong>, given by Benedict XVI to the World Day of Peace on 1 January 2012. Two thousand people were at the concert, in a wholesale warehouse, which concluded the march. \u2018The scene was pretty unusual because of the artist performance (and not a few technical problems),\u2019 Gen Rosso said, \u2018but the warmth and enthusiasm of the young Sardinians made us forget any difficulties straight away.\u2019  <strong>\u2018A different world is possible, a different humanity already exists&#8230; THANKS with all my heart!\u2019<\/strong> wrote one person after the concert.  In the town\u2019s industrial zone on the following day, 30 December, there was <strong>a day of reflection and commitment for Sardinian young people<\/strong>. Youth for a United World led it together with Gen Rosso who ran workshops with people from every part of\u00a0 Sardinia.  <strong>\u2018Thank you Gen Rosso \u2013 thank you guys!!!
