Liedernachmittag in the Afternoon (Satis Shroff) Went to a Liedernachmittag under the Tree of Wisdom in Kappel to sing with the mixed choir on July 12, 2015. It was a lovely day with a lot of friendly, fluffy clouds and the people were amiable. The dark-green pine trees behind us looked like sentinels. The choir sang?

Over 4000 people have died, 6,500 injured, and the death toll is expected to be more under the piles of earth, wood and bricks. A strong earthquake lasting almost 2 minutes hit Kathmandu this morning, 7.9 on the Richter scale, according to USGS. The epicentre lies 80 km north-west of Kathmandu, with a range ...
