Ahwak Laou Ansak

RAIN

this is one of the themes i have composed for " Roundtrip " , a film by  the Syrian director  Meyar Al-Roumi.
this piece was recorded between Beirut and Fraizer Park California .
I recorded Buzuk , guitalele , kalimba and melodica 
Miles Jay recorded Lyra , accordeon , contrebass and percussions.
This version is different from the one in the movie. I hope u ll have the chance to see it at the Dubai film festival , if it wins a prize it will hopefully be screened in some theatres around the world. ( finger crossed )

Zuki Zuki

In January 2013, the Nile Project brought together 18 musicians from Uganda, Ethiopia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt to experiment with a collaborative creative process that would last 10 days. Each musician brought 2 songs. In the morning, they taught one another their respective musical languages. in the afternoon, they played musical chairs in duos, trios, and quartets. On the 5th day, they played their songs for one another. The puzzle was all there. But it was time to organize the pieces into one seamless tapestry to perform in Aswan and in Cairo 4 days later. This recording showcases the result of this rich encounter.
