Sunday 26 May, 8:00 PM
Riyadh, Saudi Music Hub
The concert “Saudi Music Memory – Hajj Anthems” is the first collaboration between the Saudi Music Hub and the Music Commission’s Saudi Music Memory Initiative. From the archives, we present you a selection of Hajj anthems, that were composed and written by Saudi artists like Siraj Omar, Fawzi Mahsoon, Ibtissam Lotfi, Omar Kadars, and Talal Madah in the late 20th century. Their words and music capture the essence of joy during the Hajj season, from the welcoming of pilgrims to the celebration of the holy season.
On the first night of the series of concerts, we are joined by the following Riyadh Saudi Music Hub students and teachers:
Bayan Alsalim, Mishari bin Abdullah, Najla M, Taghreed S.
Ibrahim Elmogy, Saddam Kammoun, Souhail Habachi, Makrem Besha, Moath Shawqi ,
Karim Kotb, Adhem Jarrah.
