One of the vertiginous bridges that leads into the eastern Algeria city of Constantine, seen here at sunset on Thursday, 21 May, 2009, as crowds flock to the town's theater to attend a full-house jazz concert by Minneapolis U.S. Bluesman Bernard Allison in the old theater in Constantine, Algeria, on Thursday, 21 May, 2009, during the Dimajazz festival.
