Here is a snapshot and an audio sample from our performance in Beirut last night: great traditional arabic singer Daline Jabbour and Soundwalk‘s Stephan Crasneanscki and Simone Merli did a live jam session at the Zico House (more here).
The Rub Al Khali desert, or ‘Empty quarter’, is one of the largest sand deserts in the world, encompassing most of the southern part of the Arabian peninsula, including parts of the UAE, Oman, Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
In October, the Soundwalk collective made a one-month travel across this desert of silence, recording hours of hertzian frequencies as well as songs, prayers and sounds of the sand and wind.
Before presenting “Eternal Hell” at the opening of Abu Dhabi’s Art, Talks & Sensations Art Fair, Soundwalk will be playing live this thursday in Beirut, Lebanon, at Zico House, for an exclusive performance, with great traditional arabic singer and improviser Daline Jabbour as a special guest !
