Simon Shaheen and Qantara will be performing at the University of Iowa's Hancher Auditorium on February 29. There are two events prior to the concert happening in Iowa City. If anyone is in the area, this is a great oppurtunity to see Simon up close and solo. I'm looking forward to it.

Wednesday, February 27, noon

Brief performance

John Colloton Pavilion Atrium, University of Iowa Hospital & Clinics

Free and open to the public



Thursday, February 28, 7:00 p.m.

Community event co-sponsored by Arab Student Association

Old Brick Community Center

Do you know of other concert dates? His website never lists anything as the concert section is always "Coming Soon"

I'm interested in any California dates

thanks

This is the closest you'll get to any online schedule.

His website is basically just a means to announce the Arabic Music Retreat. You might also consider subscribing to the Retreat's Yahoo group. Concert announcements are sometimes made there.
