embarking on a musical journey, this concert traces the melodic scales of ancient syrian churches, meandering through the harmonious depths of johann sebastian bach's organ-music, and reverberating back to the enchanting sounds of cairo's 60s and 70s arab-electric organ tunes. the electric organ became very popular in the middle east during this time and was altered to play quarter tones which allowed it to play most arabic maqam scales. this eclectic voyage serves as a testament to the interplay between diverse musical traditions, weaving a tapestry of cultural exchange and artistic evolution. hasan kai from the band TootArd will be leading the journey, accompanied by singer lynn adib, organist antonio garcía and percussionist rami nakhleh (also from TootArd).
lynn adib (vocals/flute), antonio garcía (organ), rami nakhleh (percussion) & hasan nakhleh (curation/electric organ/synthesizer) – hosted by luc gut
