Dawn in Beirut

E540 | What did it mean to be Arab during the last decades of the Ottoman Empire? What did it mean to be Arab and invested in continuation of the Ottoman Empire? In this episode Mostafa Minawi answers these questions by focusing on the lives of two Arab-Ottoman Imperialists from the same family in Damascus, the al-'Azm or Azamzade family. By recounting their lives, excavating their writings, and narrating how their descendants remember them, Minawi explores questions of belonging, race and ethnicity, and the emotional world of a family divided by the fracturing of an centuries-old empire.

Arab-Ottoman Imperialists at the End of Empire | Mostafa Minawi

قبل مدة قصيرة، سُحبت الإندومي من أسواق تايوان وماليزيا، بزعم احتوائها على مادة مسرطنة. 
لكنّ الشركة الإندونيسية الأم، صرحت تعليقًا على الخبر، أن منتجاتها آمنة، وأن القضية مجرد سوء تفاهم.
ما المادة التي وجدت في الإندومي؟ هل هي مسرطنة حقًا؟ وهل على المستهلك العربي أن يقلق؟
ضيفنا في هذه الحلقة، مهندس تكنولوجيا الأغذية وليد فتحي، المختص بسلامة الغذاء.

حياة صحية | مسرطنات في الإندومي: لماذا يُسمح بإضافة مواد ضارة إلى الغذاء؟

The night before

قبل مدة قصيرة، توفي شقيقان سوريّان، بعد إصابتهما بوعكة صحية تتسم بالأعراض ذاتها، ورجح الأطباء أن السبب علبة مكمل غذائي للرياضيين.
فكيف لعبوة مكمل أن تقتل رجلاً يتمتع بصحة جيدة؟ هل كل المكملات خطرة؟ وهل هي ضرورة أصلاً في حياة الرياضيين؟
ضيفنا في هذه الحلقة من بودكاست "حياة صحية" الكوتش محمود حنفي، المختص بتغذية الرياضيين.

حياة صحية | مكمّلات الرّياضيين: كيف لعبوة أن تقتل رجلاً؟

Penned in 1807 by Irish barrister and poet, Thomas Moore, we derived this classic Irish air from item 105 in "140 Folk-Songs for Grades I, II and III, Volume 7" (1922) using OMR.

The song depicts a scene in the former castle of the High Kings of Ireland at Tara, the mystery shrouded site on a hilltop in County Meath, then fallen into disrepair. Vocal performance and production by @MLucas. 

Our recording features the haunting melody over sampled folk instruments including Uileaan pipes, fiddle, and hammered dulcimer but with an Americana vocal approach -- a nod to the strong and lasting influence of Irish (and other Celtic) music on the Americana genre. 

The emotional power and beautiful melody of Moore's composition has made it a favorite for Irish tenors. John McCormack's rendition (available on YouTube) is a fine example. In structure, it is a simple folk song in two verses:

The harp that once through Tara's hall,
The soul of music shed,
Now hangs as mute on Tara's walls,
As if that soul were fled.
So sleeps the pride of former days,
So glory's thrill is o'er,
And hearts, that once beat high for praise,
Now feel that pulse no more.
 
No more to chiefs and ladies bright
The harp of Tara swells;
The chord alone, that breaks at night,
Its tale of ruin tells.
Thus Freedom now so seldom wakes,
The only throb she gives,
Is when some heart indignant breaks,
To show that still she lives.

We produced the image using Open AI's DALL-E 2, to imagine how the harp might have looked in Thomas' mind's eye.

I'm on SoundCloud from November 2015.
I'm just an amateur self taught pianist and composer, a lover of music and I'm glad to have discovered the planet SoundCloud and its interesting people.
Sometimes I compose something or I improvise a song , and if I like it i send it to SoundCloud to make it listen. I thank you for the time you want to devote to listen to my songs.
