Add
Time: 7:30pm. Address: Silk St London. A potent Arabic and Mediterranean pulse runs through the inimitable combination of traditional Middle Eastern and Western elements which characterises Lebanese composer and oud master Marcel Khalifé’s music. Declared Artist for Peace in 2005 by UNESCO, Khalifé has always worked to give full voice to the joys and heartbreaks of a fraught region like the Middle East, never being afraid to make music even in the face of war – and his performances in bombed-out concert halls in his native Lebanon are statement to that. Tonight he is joined by the Al Mayadeen Ensemble – which he founded in 1978 – to perform music inspired by the verses of Palestine’s beloved late poet and exiled hero, Mahmoud Darwish. Pensive vocals intertwine with hints of jazz ballads and symphonic classics, mirroring the haunting journey of Darwish’s words through sorrow, reflection, and joy despite mortality. The concert is presented in co-sponsorship with the London Palestine Film Festival. www.palestinefilm.org Buy tickets

Marcel, Rami et Bachar Khalifé Sans qu’il soit nécessaire de remonter à la sagesse d’Aristote, la musique demeure le meilleur moyen d’adoucir les moeurs. Artiste engagé pour la paix et figure emblématique de la musique arabe du Moyen-Orient, Marcel Khalifé nous en donne une nouvelle preuve avec ce projet qui le réunit avec ses deux fils, pour désamorcer l’idée reçue du conflit entre les générations tout autant que celle qui oppose la tradition et la modernité. « On a déposé dans un même creuset toutes nos douleurs, nos joies et nos folies, aime à dire Marcel Khalifé, mais ce projet est cependant teinté d’une grande sérénité car nous sommes tous trois en fusion totale avec nos instruments qui sont des médiateurs de notre langage personnel et une extension de nous-même ». « Nous ne sommes pas un trio, précise encore Marcel Khalifé, nous sommes Marcel, Rami et Bachar Khalifé, trois entités distinctes unies dans un même corps musical ». Forts de l’idée que la musique est un langage universel, c’est à la croisée des expériences de chacun, l’oud et le chant pour Marcel, le piano pour Rami et les percussions pour Bachar, que ces trois-là ont choisi de renouer avec une autre langue première celle qui fait converger les talents.

The world is what we make of it, provided that never disarm critical thinking and civic engagement. To overcome criticism, understand to act, deconstruct to reconstruct. We invite you to join us on the occasion of this day of workshops, debates, artistic expressions, revolts critical … An opportunity to think freely with Robert Castel, Stéphane Hessel, Edgar Morin, Bertrand Ogilvie, Henri Pena-Ruiz, Wassyla Tamzali, Alain Touraine, Jean Ziegler, Vincent Cespedes, Jean-Pierre Changeux, Catherine de Wenden, Yvon Englert, Raphael Enthoven, Cynthia Fleury, Guy Haarscher Andrea Rea … Not to mention the exceptional artists of talent and commitment as Paco Ibanez, Marcel Khalife, Claude Semal.
