Hamer Hall will fill with music rich in nostalgia, melancholy, joy and the celebration of life, giving a fitting nod to a musical tradition.
Using propulsive rhythms, colourful timbres, cascading ornaments and subtle phrasing, Marcel Khalifé combines ancient traditions with modern instrumental compositions and passionate folk idioms, to create a musical dialogue that has a power that reaches beyond the Arab world.
