MOUSSEM CITIES@ BOZAR

MOUSSEM TALKS

5 YEARS AFTER THE REVOLUTION: THE NEXT CHALLENGE FOR TUNISIA

Sufi Night

Moussem Nomadic Arts Centre and BOZAR are once again inviting music groups from the Muslim world so we can hear their hypnotising music resonating throughout the Brussels venue. The focus this year is on Syria. The afternoon will feature a lecture and a poetry project with singing and a documentary.

Thanks to his magically skilful playing on the qanun (lap harp), Osama Abdulrasol has succeeded in making a valuable contribution to the Belgian and international world music scene for many years now.

Homayoun Shajarian

Vocalist Homayoun Shajarian is just as in his element with classical Iranian music as he is with pop or rock music.
