MAARAD MUSIC FESTIVAL - 1ST EDITION

Festivals

03/09/2022 à 16:00

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the 1st edition of the "Maarad Music Festival". The festival will take place on Friday, 03 September 2022 at the emblematic Rachid Karami International Fair in Tripoli - Lebanon, built in the 1960s by the renowned Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer.

 

Having Tripoli selected as the Arab Capital of Culture for the year 2024 represents an opportunity to set in motion a collective cultural and artistic renaissance for the city of Tripoli, and to be part of a creative movement promoting local talents, advocating for the decentralization of cultural productions, and making Art and Culture accessible to all.

 

Building on this momentum, Rumman is piloting this exciting, new, and independent music festival in collaboration with Beirut and Beyond to showcase homegrown musical talents, feature international artists, and create a platform for cultural and civic actors to meet, learn, and inspire each other while discovering a new city and exploring its hidden gems.

-> Tarabeat (LB)

Tarabeat is an ensemble - or takhet - of musicians that draws heavily from the traditions of classical Middle Eastern music. Relying extensively on Arabic scales - maqams - and rhythms for their compositions, the group seeks to build off of a long and rich history of regional Tarab music. Tarabeat achieves its unique sound by supplementing an otherwise traditional instrumentation of Oud, Nay, Qanoun, Santour, Violin, Tar, and Riq with sequencers, digital synthesizers, and bass guitars. The result is an energetic blend of dance music, heavily inspired by Tarab, Sufi, and other regional folk music.
