Arabic Music Days: The Opening

Sobre o Evento

Singer and composer Moneim Adwan was born in the city of Rafah in the occupied Palestinian Gaza Strip, moved to France to study, and later obtained French citizenship. As a result of his journey, Adwan realized, identities and places had become mixed in his music, a music filled with questions of freedom and justice, either through the re‐introduction of folklore elements or emerging from his own work. At the same time that journey was a search for new artistic ground for his Oud and his own musical voice. For the opening concert of the Arabic Music Days, Adwan will bring a selection of his experiences to the stage, together with an ensemble of guest singers and musicians.
