The center piece of our program will feature&nbsp;Vaughan William’sDona Nobis Pacem&nbsp;— Latin for “grant us peace”—&nbsp;a mesmerizing piece that combines poems by&nbsp;Walt Whitman, a speech to British Parliament,&nbsp;and passages from the bible. This work is a cry for peace, in which the composer takes us on a journey from the horrors of war to a universal plea for world peace, all messages pertinent and vital in today’s Lebanon. While it was written as a warning before World War&nbsp;II and a plea not to repeat the carnage of previous wars, its message of harmony and reconciliation amidst chaos and violence is what we need most during these uncertain and difficult times.&nbsp;Composed in 1936,&nbsp;the work served as a rallying cry for the anti-war movement capturing the fear and anxiety of the people leading up to the war. On the eve of the Blitz, the BBC tried unsuccessfully to broadcast the work throughout Germany as a piece of musical propaganda.&nbsp;However, during the war itself,&nbsp;the piece was performed&nbsp;throughout Britain&nbsp;to&nbsp;give the population some hope of a future of peace.&nbsp;&nbsp;The second part of the program will feature choral works by French&nbsp;composer&nbsp;Gabriel Fauré -&nbsp;set on the words of big French poets and writers like Victor Hugo,&nbsp;Robert de&nbsp;Montesquiou and&nbsp;Armand Silvestre – carrying on with the message that love is truly what we need.&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul><li>The live concert will have a limited audience upon invitation exclusively in respect to the COVID-19 safety measures.&nbsp;</li><li>The concert will also be live streamed on the USJ Choir social media platforms (Instagram and Facebook: @choeurusj) and the Lebanese National Conservatory social media platforms.</li></ul>Performers:<ul><li>Chœur de l’USJ</li><li>The Lebanese Philharmonic Orchestra</li><li>Julie Martin du Theil, Soprano (Swiss)</li><li>Philippe-Nicolas Martin, Baritone (French)</li><li>Chadi Zein, Scenographer</li><li>Yasmina Sabbah, Conductor</li></ul>Concert duration: 60 minutesCOVID-19 safety measures:<ul><li>Social distancing between performers</li><li>Obligatory mask for orchestra, choir members and audience during all rehearsals and performance&nbsp;</li><li>Limited audience (upon invitation)</li><li>All other strict measures required by government and university policy</li></ul>

However, during the war itself, the piece was performed throughout Britain to give the population some hope of a future of peace.&nbsp;&nbsp;The second part of the program will feature choral works by French&nbsp;composer&nbsp;Gabriel Fauré -&nbsp;set on the words of big French poets and writers like Victor Hugo,&nbsp;Robert de&nbsp;Montesquiou and&nbsp;Armand Silvestre – carrying on with the message that love is truly what we need.&nbsp;&nbsp;Vaughan Williams’s&nbsp;Dona nobis pacem&nbsp;is an extraordinary masterpiece of hope for a world without war, a message tightly connected to our Lebanese past. On one hand, this piece falls into the remembrance culture, in which we are reminded of the past horrors of war, in order not to repeat the mistakes of the past and that there are no winners in war. Moreover, remembrance culture serves even a greater international example of what could happen in other countries —in the present or in the future. Lebanon has endured a bloody and violent 15-year civil war and a series of violent events leading to the August-4 explosion. Though our bloody past has not been forgotten, and&nbsp;while peace may still be far, we have no choice but to dream for it. The recurring prayer “grant us peace” haunts the entire work, finally triumphing over the terrors of war which are explicitly described in Whitman’s poems.&nbsp;&nbsp;Live Performance Date:Friday, June 18 at 9:00 PM at the St. Joseph Church, Monot.&nbsp;<ul><li>The live concert will have a limited audience upon invitation exclusively in respect to the COVID-19 safety measures.&nbsp;</li><li>The concert will also be live streamed on the USJ Choir social media platforms (Instagram and Facebook: @choeurusj) and the Lebanese National Conservatory social media platforms.</li></ul>Performers:<ul><li>Chœur de l’USJ</li><li>The Lebanese Philharmonic Orchestra</li><li>Julie Martin du Theil, Soprano (Swiss)</li><li>Philippe-Nicolas Martin, Baritone (French)</li><li>Chadi Zein, Scenographer</li><li>Yasmina Sabbah, Conductor</li></ul>Concert duration: 60 minutes&nbsp;&nbsp;

Amis musiciens, mélomanes, tripolitains et tripolitaines, libanaises et libanais ! Ne manquez pas la 21e édition de la Fête de la musique au Liban à Tripoli, samedi 19 juin de 17h à 20h, à la Foire Internationale Rachid Karamé. Sur scène, trois concerts pour trois genres musicaux, dans un lieu mythique, au cours d'une soirée musicale 100% tripolitaine ! 🎼 Pour vous proposer ce moment extraordinaire de musique et de partage, gratuit et ouvert à toutes et à tous, l'Institut français du Liban à Tripoli s'est associé à la municipalité de Tripoli, à l'association مدينتي للثقافة والتنمية, au Levantine Institute et son tout nouveau hub musical, le Rumman, ainsi qu'à la Direction Générale des Antiquités et à la Foire Internationale Rachid Karamé.🎹🥁🎸🎺 Car, malgré la crise dans laquelle le Liban 🇱🇧est engouffré depuis deux années, malgré toutes les difficultés et les mille blocages que nous connaissons au quotidien, la musique 🎼et l'art ne peuvent et ne doivent pas s'éteindre : il est temps de reprendre un peu de force et de sortir à l'extérieur, dehors, de se mettre toujours en route, et de chanter 🎤ce que nous avons encore à dire... Au programme : 17h - La Chorale Fayhaa Véritable institution faisant rayonner la ville de Tripoli à l'internationale depuis sa création en 2003, la chorale Fayhaa est dirigée par Maestro Barkev Talakian. Composée de presque 80 chanteurs, la chorale Fayhaa a joué dans de nombreux pays, sans jamais cesser de briller et de chanter dans sa ville natale, Tripoli. En 2016, et en collaboration avec la Fondation Al Makassed, le chœur a établi sa deuxième branche à Beyrouth. Depuis, la chorale a également mis le pied hors du Liban en 2017 en fondant une autre chorale au Caire, en Égypte. 18h - Ensemble traditionnel Cet ensemble de musique traditionnelle arabe, composé de musiciens professionnels et d'enseignants du conservatoire de Tripoli, Bassam hussein (chant), Ibrahim rajab (Oud), Sam Dboul (Qanoun), Wissam El Bitar(Tablé), Rabih Mhawej (Ré), interprétera parmi les plus grands classiques de la musique Tarab. 19h - Bob Arja et O6 Bob Arja est une référence dans le rap tripolitain. Il fait ses débuts en 2009 sur la scène hip-hop libanaise et tourne, depuis, partout au Liban. En 2014, il commence sa carrière en tant que formateur musical pour les jeunes, surtout durant les affrontements entre Jabal Mohsen et Bab el Tebbeneh. Lors du concert samedi 19 juin, il sera accompagné de O6, un groupe formé début 2021 de jeunes de tous les quartiers de Tripoli afin de présenter un message d'unité et diversité.

After graduating from the Faculty of Fine Arts in Damascus in 1998, he went on to obtain a Master's degree in Fine Arts in 2000. Having been featured in exhibitions throughout the Middle East and in the US, he is the recipient of several awards, notably the first prize recipient of the 3rd Annual Youth Competition in Damascus.Today his work is housed in collections across the Arab world.&nbsp;Omran Younis’ large canvases are distinguished by detailed investigations into human subjects. His continual explorations of various styles of expressionist painting have culminated in a noticeable pursuit of elevating his art to its highest form. He has demonstrated this versatility throughout his career and frequently works within a specific theme, with each series dedicated to particular experiments and breakthroughs in art.Belonging to a group of artists that emerged amidst the legacy of Syrian modernism,&nbsp;Omran Younis has sought to further the accomplishments of his predecessors while fashioning his own path through the visual language of contemporary art. The result has been a brand of painting that mixes bold social commentary with an acute sense of observation and a confident command of medium and techniques. <a href="https://www.missionart.online/art#/omran-younis">https://www.missionart.online/art#/omran-younis</a>

Reading into the works of Sara Chaar is like jumping head on into a rumbling stream of consciousness, inhabited by insect-like creatures created with instinctual marks transferring her impulses and feelings directly onto the piece.The process is a cycle of constructing, deconstructing and reconstructing, echoing the never-ending story of Beirut.&nbsp;&nbsp;With construction tools, she accumulates layers of paint and material that work as a foundation that she later on scratches through with screwdrivers, cutters and palette knives, instinctively forcing out transformations and translations of her encounters with sounds and sights.&nbsp;She is interested in breaking or erasing the often somber color range on the surface of her works revealing broken up references of soil and land, referencing a sense of being rooted or belonging.&nbsp;Born in Miami Florida Sara is a Visual Artist whose practice spans drawing, painting and video art. She has participated in several collective exhibitions in Lebanon, Copenhagen, and Canada including her upcoming participation in the collective “Lumiere du Liban” at the Institute du Monde Arabe in Paris
