Dear friends,
let me inform you a little bit more about the places we have this year in Sulzburg at the summeracademy, espeially the concert places.
For the first this will be a former synagoge build in 1821 / 1822, restored in 1879 and which was not destroyed in the 2nd world war. Since the 70's
it is owned by the city government and used as a now in the region well known concert place. Many years ago I saw there my first concert with Giora
Faidman.

Aoud Workshop for beginner - Mustafa Said
Mustafa Said puts his focus in that group on one side on the technique, especially on holding the plectrum, the rischa and furthermore on the way to
pluck the strings. Both he thinks are the main principles to get a good contact to the instrument. But also the general holding of the instrument will
be practised.
Naturally his special traditional and egyptian stile goes into his lessons.
He is working in his lessonwithout notes, only listening and repeating is his method to get a feeling to that instrument and the oriental tunes. This
is an importand aspect for him.
His lessons are an optimal start on the oud.

percussion for beginner with joss Turnbull
Frame drums are one of the oldest percussion instruments of the world. Possibly having its origin in the symbolic transformation of the flour sieve in
ancient Mesopotamia it then spread throughout the world, developing on the way countless varieties of shape and sound.
In this workshop you will be getting an insight over the basic techniques and rhythms for the large frame drum as played on the lap in a sitting
position. Not just the training of individual playing skills will be focused in Joss's workshops but also the skills of ensemble playing. He works
with an eye on the the whole playing posture so that an easy and relaxed way of playing can develop. Bodypercussion and exercises for improvisation
will be completing the every day's instrumental practice.

Concert 1 - 5th sept, 8pm - D - 79295 Sulzburg
Over seas trio
M. Said - Aoud
Eddin Maraqa - Kanun
J. Turnbull - percussion
The encounter of three outstanding solo artists is a fascinating experience. Said is known as a guardian of traditional Arabic music while he also
endeavours to renew the arabian music with his new and contemporary compositions without loosing the old musical systems of the classical heritage.
Maraqa has a profound knowledge of different styles in the oriental music and feels free to blend western sounds and ideas of experimental
improvisation. The percussionist Turnbull combines different musical worlds such as the metrics of the near orient and an innovative aesthetic of
sound. This trio concert guarantees an intense and extraordinary live experience which will touch the listener.
tickets: 17 Eur, reservation at Reservix

2nd concert -- 6th september, 8pm, Sulzburg former Synagogue
"Wasla-s" Egyptian suite
Tarek Abdallah, Aoud & Adel Shams El Din, percussion
The wasla is a particular expression of the musical suite, developed by different Arab traditions, like "Nuba" in North Africa and "Fasl" in Syria.
Therefore the term refers to the specific Egyptian classical musical suite that was practised between the last third of the nineteenth century until
the 1940s. Nowadays, this period, the "Nahda era", is considered as the Golden Age, not only of this musical tradition, but also in the art of
Egyptian oud solo. "Wasla - s" is a creation developed by Tarek Abdallah proposing to revive the golden age of the musical tradition through a
personal approach to the Egyptian musical suite, both in terms of composition, interpretation and improvisation.
Both musicians are from Alexandria, living now in France since many years and are fluent in the language of Egyptian classical tradition. The duo
evokes the fascinating history of this ancient music while by extending it with inspired contemporary compositions. The shape of the duo offers these
interpreters freedom to express their talent of outstanding improvisers.
Tickets can be ordered here:
Reservix: Wasla-s
