In Between Spaces: Lekhfa | Nadah El Shazly u.a.

INDIE IDIOSYNCRACIES

European enthusiasm for pop music and club sounds from the Middle East has been unbroken for several years. Under the title "IN BETWEEN SPACES: INDIE IDIOSYNCRACIES", musician and curator Thomas Gläßer organizes a music and discourse event lasting several days in dialogue with the Egyptian-Algerian producer and music manager Sarah El Miniaway, which takes a closer look at the idiosyncratic hybridizations between Arab and Western music that have emerged in recent decades in the alternative music scenes of many Arab cities. The festival sets three highlights in the Stadtgarten concert hall and the newly opened club "Jaki", the converted Studio 672 in the Stadtgarten, which above all illuminate the musical phenomena themselves.

The third highlight of the series "In Between Spaces" is thrown on multilayered experimental pop music as constructed by the Egyptian-Palestinian "Supergroup" Lekhfa around Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca and Tamer Abu Gazaleh. Or Nadah El Shazly, who recorded her deliriously disorienting album "Ahwar" (2017) between Cairo and Montreal.
