SUMMARY:Jazz At The Island: Mezzotono / Nesrine
DESCRIPTION:Jazz under the stars on Sharjah’s Al Noor Island – though the evening might be stretching the definition of ‘jazz’. The headliners are Mezzotono\, the Italian a cappella five-voice group with a unique style which blends vocal harmonies\, beatboxing\, and vocal percussion. They aim to cover many music styles from jazz to pop via mambo\, tango\, folk music (especially Italian – they’re from Italy)\, big band jazz and classical. And the Franco-Algerian singer\, songwriter and cellist Nesrine (above) is another breaker of genre boundaries\, usually employing a unique lineup of voice\, cello\, and percussion to deliver a musical fusion that spans the Mediterranean region from North Africa to Southern Europe. \nWhatever the definitions\, though\, this is an evening that we’d highly recommend. \nThe schedule: \n4-5pm Tour of the island and the Butterfly House\n5-5.30pm Vocal jazz workshop with Mezzotono (included in the ticket price\, we think\, but first come first served)\n6-7pm Performance by Sens8tion (Sharjah Performing Arts Academy dance troupe)\n7-8.30pm Interval for dinner\n8.30-9.30pm Mezzotono\n9.30-10.30pm Nesrine \nThe AED 100 ticket price buys you entry to the music\, but there’s also a 250 AED option which includes dinner before the main acts; and a AED 450 deal for entry on both nights including dinner.

SUMMARY:Jazz At The Island: Aleksandra Krstic / Tania Kassis
DESCRIPTION:Jazz under the stars on Sharjah’s Al Noor Island – though again we’re not sure either artist would regard themselves as characteristic of (or confined to) the jazz genre. The Dubai-based Serbian singer\, songwriter\, pianist and composer Aleksandra Krstic has performed in a classical\, jazz\, funk\, soul and pop styles\, both solo and in bands; she’s also worked as a recording artist with jazz and electronic music artists. She has a nice sultry voice for self-accompanied Ella Fitzgerald style jazz. The award-winning Lebanese singer Tania Kassis (above) has won acclaim for her powerful soprano and crossover jazz-tinged Arabic melodies (check out our her Live at l’Olympia disc to get some idea of her range and capabilities\, especially the lovely ‘Islamo Christian Ave’). \nThe schedule: \n4-5.30pm Tour of the island and the Butterfly House\n6-6.40pm Jazz piano workshop with Rami Atallah (included in the ticket price\, we think\, but first come first served)\n7-8.30pm Interval for dinner\n8.30-9.30pm Aleksandra Krstic\n9.30-10.30pm Tania Kassis \nThe AED 100 ticket price buys you entry to the music\, but there’s also a 250 AED option which includes dinner before the main acts.

SUMMARY:Le Trio Joubran
DESCRIPTION:Music under the stars on Sharjah’s Al Noor Island with a noted oud trio playing traditional Palestinian music with Western stylings. Brothers Samir\, Wissam\, and Adnan Joubran\, originally from Nazareth and now dividing their time between Nazareth\, Ramallah and Paris\, will happily admit to gathering musical influences anywhere they can find them; but the results through several CDs and many spectacular performances are never less than potently nationalistic in their intent. “The Trio Joubran talents as musicians are complemented by their compassion as human beings\,” wrote Brian Eno. “Their longstanding and determined commitment has made them a symbol of Palestinian identity and resistance. Trio Joubran\, in its brilliant and fiery exuberance\, sends out a message: Palestine is alive.” \n
