SUMMARY:Maksim Mrvica
DESCRIPTION:Known for his dramatic performances\, an edgy take on classical crossover\, and roguish good looks\, the young Serbian piano virtuoso infuses classical music with dance beats while (mostly) keeping his intricate playing to the fore in his arrangements. Mrvica definitely delivers a good night out … \nAs usual with Zabeel Theatre performances\, there’s a 20% savings on F&B elsewhere in the Jumeirah Zabeel Saray.

SUMMARY:Faces of Love
DESCRIPTION:The UAE National Orchestra’s second concert programme unfolds in three movements: Emerging Love\, Passionate Love\, and Eternal Love. There’s no information about the music\, but we’re told that “at the heart of this journey\, the ney [a Middle Eastern flute] traces a path of breath and memory\, its soulful voice carrying longing and intimacy. What begins in tenderness grows into power and transcendence …”

SUMMARY:Vivaldi: A Journey East
DESCRIPTION:This UAE National Orchestra concert looks like a really interesting (and challenging) option – music by the baroque master composer rescored for the instruments\, modes and sounds of the Arab world: “a musical dialogue emerges\, as harpsichord converses with qanun and violin answers the oud\, finding shared language”. We don’t know exactly which Vivaldi works have provided the source material\, or indeed who provided the arrangements\, but it’s bound to be worth the ticket price …

SUMMARY:UAENO: Echoes of Time – Ibn Arabi
DESCRIPTION:The UAE National Orchestra continues its inaugural season with a concert inspired by the words of Ibn Arabi\, the Arab scholar\, Sufi mystic\, poet\, and Muslim philosopher from 12th and 13th century al-Andalus. This is the world premiere of a symphonic poem by Nadim Tarabay\, the composer who was also commissioned for the UAENO’s symphony The Beginning. \nIbn Arabi’s major teachings emphasize the concept of unity of existence (wahdat al-wujud)\, the idea that all beings are interconnected manifestations of the same divine reality\, encouraging a deep understanding of the self and God through love and spiritual discovery; Echoes of Time seeks a musical response to these ideas\, where the music becomes reflection and connection with Arabic and Western instruments plus voices “invite the audience to experience time as emotion\, where silence and melody carry meaning”.
