Free entrance

Kalilya Jubran was born in Akka, Palestine.
Elias Jubran, Kamilya's father, an authentic instrument maker and a music teacher; was her first source of classical Arabic musical education. In Jerusalem and for twenty years, Kamilya was Sabreen's lead song performer, and player of Oud, Qanoon, and other oriental instruments.
From 1982 to 2002, Kamilya along with Sabreen represented the voice of resistance; struggle for freedom, and a deep and dynamic artistic-political process that created a new style of a modern Arabic song.
Since 2002, Kamilya has toured with her first project Mahattaat, then Wameedd, as well as performing solos in several Arab and European cities.
Kamilya creates and performs her own songs and music whilst roaming the in-between spaces of the world and non-commercial milieus with a number of European musicians.

Khyam Allami is a multi-instrumentalist, serial collaborator, musical explorer: he is primarily a musician and composer with a formidable – and continually growing – international reputation.
A man of many talents, and one of the Arab world's most active musicians, Allami is known primarily as an Oud player, also a record label manager, researcher, producer, recording and mixing engineer.
