SUMMARY:CLOSING TODAY Nothing Worth Mentioning
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition featuring more than 40 works by 16 photographers (of different nationalities\, but all based in the UAE) that seek to find beauty and meaning in the small moments of everyday life\, personal rituals\, routines\, brief encounters\, simple gestures and humble places we often overlook. As the gallery puts it\, “It reminds us that sometimes the things we dismiss as ordinary are the things that tell us who we are\, where we come from\, and what we remember”. \nThe exhibition is curated by Ola Allouz\, herself an award-winning photographer; her idea for the exhibition grew from taking groups of photographers on trips to the village of Kumzar. For Allouz\, the moments around the table stayed with her the most\, sharing food\, stories\, laughter\, and conversation. That led to the question at the heart of the exhibition: ‘Can a feeling be archived?”’ \nThere are works by Abdallah Alastad\, Abdulla Al Ghurair\, Abdulla Alblooshi\, Aisha Esmaeilzadeh\, Akhilesh Nair\, April Ann Vocal\, Fatima Al Amiri\, Fatima Albudoor\, Judite Serafim\, Latifa Almazrouei\, Maitha Alqassmi\, Maria Khodzhamberdieva\, Mohamed Al Alawi\, Preschelle Ann Bigueras\, Sara Al Shamsi and Ola Allouz herself.

SUMMARY:Mozart’s Greatest
DESCRIPTION:You can’t fault the UAENO’s ambition in naming this programme – the title almost precludes discussion. It includes three admittedly classic works\, but there must surely have been a strong case for others (we’d have gone for the Symphony No.41 ‘Jupiter’ as one of the greatest). Still\, it is a strong programme that highlights Mozart’s versatility as well as his technical skills\, ranging from the often dark intensity of the opener through virtuosity and musical brilliance to the dramatic intensity and emotional depth of Symphony No.40. \nAhmed Farag conducts the UAE National Orchestra\, with the Serbian pianist Nenad Ivović the soloist for the Piano Concerto. \nThe programme: \nOverture from Don Giovanni\, K.527\nPiano Concerto No.21 in C Major\, K. 467\nSymphony No.40 in G minor\, K.550

SUMMARY:Ali Al Sayed
DESCRIPTION:Dubomedy’s main man is always good value\, though the ticket price here does reflect his growing stature. Expect an evening of probably inappropriate jokes\, lots of banter with the audience\, and a general feel-good vibe. All seats must be pre-booked …
