Revisiting Tarab by Fouad Elkoury

In the framework of the public program of 'La Mer Patrie', Dar El-Nimer for Arts and Culture invites you to the screening of 'Revisiting Tarab', directed by Fouad Elkoury.

In 2011, under the generic name of 'Visiting Tarab', Tarek Atoui invited some musicians to perform together in two separate concerts, one in New York and one in Sharjah. A few musicians also chose to take part in a preliminary research phase led by Kamal Kassar on Arab traditional music at the premises of the Foundation For Arab Music Archiving & Research - AMAR in Lebanon. The film retraces those moments, between Lebanon, New York and Sharjah when things were still at an early phase. Since then, more concerts have taken place around the world.
