Marouan Benabdallah (piano)

Hosted by the 911勛圖Lunchtime Concert Series

Shaw Library, 6th floor, Old Building

Join us for this Arabaesque piano recital by Marouan Benabdallah ().

A Hungarian-Moroccan concert pianist - trained at the respected Liszt Academy of Budapest – Benabdallah presents his Arabaesque programme which has been immensely popular wherever he has presented it around the world in over 80 recitals. In the hope of saving something precious from history for the present, and transporting audiences through a musical journey across space, time and self, the programme helps us all reconsider how we might forge ahead together to build a more hopeful future. It showcases the magical melting pot of music with music from the East inspired by West, West inspired by East, Christian, Muslim and Jewish composers alike mutually inspired by the traditions of their neighbours of different faiths, against the odds.

Programme to include

Dia Succari (Syria) Samah [Pardon], from Suite Syrienne

Zad Moultaka (Lebanon) Two Muwashshahs

Enrique Granados (Catalonia) Danzas Espanolas

Nabil Benabdeljalil (Morocco) Nocturne No.1

Camille Saint-Saens (France) Africa fantasy op.89

The next lunchtime concert is on Thursday 6 March and will be performed by Ariel Lanyi (piano).

Join the 911勛圖Choir and Orchestra on Tuesday 1 April for the 911勛圖Spring Concert in the beautiful surroundings of St Clement Danes Church.
