SUMMARY:Amr Diab
DESCRIPTION:The Egyptian singer (and songwriter\, and actor) has a magnetic stage presence and a great back catalogue\, based on more than 30 albums and four decades of contribution to the Arabic and global music scene – and especially his way of fusing traditional Arabic songs with modern pop and electronic styles. Should be a good gig.

SUMMARY:David Garrett: ICONIC Tour 2023
DESCRIPTION:Violinist David Garrett has built a reputation for his fearless playing and genre-defying repertoire (he has won awards in both classical and pop categories). A genuine child prodigy\, he became the youngest artist to sign with Deutsche Grammophon at 13; aged 15\, he recorded all 24 Caprices by Paganini\, famously among the most difficult pieces written for violin. He studied at The Juilliard School in New York with Itzhak Perlman and has been described by Yehudi Menuhin as “the greatest violinist of his generation”. \nOver the past two decades David Garrett has performed with many of the world’s leading orchestras and conductors and reached new audiences around the globe with his classical and crossover repertoire. \nLate last year he released a new album\, Iconic\, which pays homage to the great violinists of the golden age. It represents a personal selection of repertoire gems\, including new arrangements for violin\, guitar and orchestra of pieces by Bach\, Gluck\, Mendelssohn\, Schumann\, Dvorák\, and Kreisler\, among others. Having been specially arranged for violin\, guitar\, and orchestra\, these pieces take on a fresh\, intimate\, and distinctive character. \nGarrett is joined for this concert by his guitarist and co-arranger\, Franck van der Heijden\, who also directs Orchestra The Prezent. “I’ve recorded many virtuoso albums myself\,” says the violinist. “This time it was particularly important to me to refocus on the essentials\, on what really speaks to the heart.”

SUMMARY:Kenny Garrett: Sounds from the Ancestors
DESCRIPTION:One of modern jazz’s most influential living masters recently released an album titled Sounds from the Ancestors. “The concept initially was about trying to get some of the musical sounds that I remembered as a kid growing up – sounds that lift your spirit from people like John Coltrane\, Aretha Franklin\, Marvin Gaye\, and the spiritual side of the church\,” says Garrett. “When I started to think about them\, I realised it was the spirit from my ancestors.” \nThe result is clearly based in the rich jazz\, R&B\, and gospel history of his hometown of Detroit\, but also reflects a modern cosmopolitan vibe – notably music from France\, Cuba\, Nigeria and Guadeloupe. Miles Davis’ On The Corner is cited as an influence\, but mostly for its inventive approach towards extending the jazz vocabulary; Garrett is offering music that is much more melodic and sits comfortably within the modern jazz tradition. \nShould be a good evening.
