Cairo Steps

In 2002, “Cairo Steps band” was born through the collaboration of two highly talented and esteemed musicians.
Coming from very different two parts of the world, and different music styles.
Basem Darwisch  from Egypt, and Matthias Frey from Germany. 
They both wanted to introduce a new and unique music production to the younger generations of the Middle East.
The collaboration between the two musicians resulted in collaboration between their music styles also, and the result was a combination between the Egyptian spiritual ethnic music and Jazz music.
The band toured in Egypt and Europe in many different events, inviting musicians and artists from around the world to join them their performances and tours.
During this time, the band was invited to represent Germany in the cultural Institute festivals around Europe and the Middle East.

Lyrics:	

The earth..it is big..and I wonder
if I'm going to go ...from where to start?
I get up from my ashes surrounded by the world
and the faults of the past that I have to forget
love and dreams fleeing , small stupid mistakes that destroy us
troubles of life..make our steps heavy and difficult
like a child who rises after he falls.. I get up
I look ahead  I get up..I push my legs I get up
I get up I get up
I feel tired.. of running of searching..between my future and my memories
I see the time passing..moments ..years
without the slightest desire nor the slightest smile
love and dreams fleeing , small stupid mistakes that destroy us
troubles of life..make our steps heavy and difficult
like a sun that rises after a night that ends
bringing a life and a dream
my faded body rises..I get up..I get up
The earth..it is round 
and I wonder if I'll find me..in each other side..

الارض..هي كبيرة وأنا أتساءل
إذا أنا ذاهب ... من أين أبدأ؟
أنهض من رمادي محاطا بهذا العالم
و غلطات الماضي التي يجب أن أنساها
الحب والأحلام الهاربة.. الأخطاء الغبية الصغيرة التي تدمرنا
متاعب الحياة تجعل خطواتنا ثقيلة وصعبة
مثل الطفل الذي ينهض بعد أن يقع أنهض
أنظر إلى الأمام أنهض أدفع ساقي أنهض
أنهض أنهض
أشعر بالتعب من الجري من البحث
بين مستقبلي وذكرياتي
أرى الوقت يمر لحظات سنوات
دون أدنى رغبة ولا أدنى ابتسامة
الحب والأحلام الهاربة.. الأخطاء الغبية الصغيرة التي تدمرنا
متاعب الحياة تجعل خطواتنا ثقيلة وصعبة
مثل شمس تشرق اثر ليل ينتهي
حاملة حياة وحلم
 يرتفع جسدي الذابل 
أنهض أنهض
الارض..هي كروية
 وأنا أتساءل عما إذا كنت سأجدني
على كل جانب آخر

يا قاتلي

يا قاتلي ولهاً، أحييتني تيها
كلّ الأغاني سدىً، إن لم تكن فيها

جراح حبك تذكارٌ على جسدي
إن كان لي فيك خيرٌ، لا تداويها


ونار حبّك في روحي مقدّسةٌ
ما أكثر الدمع لكن ليس يطفيها

خذني إليك، وشكّلني... وكن صفتي
أحقّ أنت بروحي أن تسمّيها


ما نِمت إلا لأني قد أراك غداً
ما قُمتُ إلا لشمسٍ أنت تُضويها

وما تركتُ صلاةً في هواك جوىً
فأنت قِبلةُ قلبي إذ أصليها...
________________________________________________

Lyrics translation

You, who kill me through passion
You make me feel alive, through feeling lost
Every song is meaningless, if you are not in it

The wounds of your love are a memory on my body
But I shall keep anything from you... so please don’t heal them

Your fire inside my soul is holy
It can’t be put out despite all the tears
Take me towards you, write me and form me
Be my adjective
You are more righteous to name my soul

At night I sleep, just to see you the next day
Each morning I wake up just to see the light of your sun
and I haven’t missed one single prayer for the sake of your love
for the direction of my prayer is you

Cairo Steps ft. Souad Massi  LIVE غير انت 2017

German Jazz Award 2018 for the Album Flying Carpet together with Quadro Nuevo
Building Bridges between cultures and to send an indirect message to the audience, creating an positive image about the Egyptian Culture Heritage was the reason why Basem Darwisch founded the German/Egyptian Band Cairo Steps in 2003 .
Cairo Steps merges and combines traditional Egyptian and oriental grooves with modern jazz and classics , using vocal inserts with old Arabic poems . it is a mix between improvisation, classical music and contemporary sounds. The music is influenced by spiritual ethnic music as well as European music traditions and alternates between strong unison rhythms, virtuoso solos and meditative soundscapes. The result is a unique music style and an exciting blend of various cultures
Basem could manage to make Cairo Steps plays the role of the umbrella that has all of the different musical genres and experiences merged together all the way from spiritual chants to modern classics with their own flavor and to pursues the vision of crossing cultural, political and religious borders and building bridges between the occident and the orient. Basem Darwisch’s Vision is to present the audience with a tense spiritual musical experience as language that can help them transcend over their earthly matters and to use the concert to create an atmosphere of tolerance and acceptance of other and different cultures advocating the motto “Music is the bonding force” 
His Vision is also to leave an positive impression about the Egyptian culture heritage through short speeches , visuals and introductions during Cairo Steps concerts in Europe in very well known opera houses and theaters e.g. : Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, Philharmonie Berlin, Alte Oper Frankfurt, Prinzregententheater München, Theaterhaus Stuttgart  , Kuwait , Abou Dhabi and Cairo Opera House etc.
