SUMMARY:Hans Zimmer Live
DESCRIPTION:Hans Zimmer is probably best known for some of the most listened-to soundtracks in the history of cinema – The Lion King\, Gladiator\, Pirates of the Caribbean\, The Dark Knight\, Dune – but his live show is also pretty special. It features new arrangements from the Oscar-winning composer’s stellar back catalogue\, recreated on stage by Zimmer himself (he’s an excellent keyboardist and plays a mean guitar) with a large orchestra and dancers (45 of them in total). Recommended. \nThere’s a second show on 1 June.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Independence in the Music Business with Oddisee
DESCRIPTION:Prior to his Arts Center show tomorrow\, the fiercely independent hip hop artist Oddisee will lead a talk in the NYUAD Gallery Reading Room that focuses on the DIY entrepreneurial approach to building his career – instead of pursuing record deals\, Oddisee has taken the less-travelled path from single-handedly writing\, recording\, producing\, and mixing his music to steering his marketing strategy and tour runs. In this presentation and audience Q&A\, Oddisee covers some of the essentials elements of this: building a brand\, identifying markets\, developing relationships with promoters\, and running a record label (he launched his own label OUTER NOTE in 2020).

SUMMARY:DuoCalva
DESCRIPTION:A rare chance to catch the Swiss ‘cellocomedy’ duo outside Europe. Alain Schudel and Daniel Schaerer are excellent cellists in their own right\, but on the stage with pieces by the likes of Mozart\, Strauss\, Holst and David Bowie (ok\, maybe just Major Tom) they provide an accessible family-friendly musical treat. This is a good pick (and a good price) in the Abu Dhabi Classics series.

SUMMARY:Alice Sara Ott: Echoes of Life
DESCRIPTION:The remarkable young German-Japanese pianist has been winning awards since she was seven; this performance sounds equally impressive in its own way\, an autobiographical musical journey built around Chopin’s 24 Preludes (the CD also has seven contemporary works to complete the programme\, by György Ligeti\, Nino Rota\, Chilly Gonzales\, Toru Takemitsu\, Arvo Pärt\, Francesco Tristano\, and one of Alice Ott’s own compositions based on Mozart’s Lacrimosa). The music and the playing should be exceptional\, but the show is accompanied by visuals created by noted architect Hakan Demirel which are reportedly as impressive …

SUMMARY:All Africa Festival
DESCRIPTION:Three days of African vibes\, described as “the UAE’s largest celebration of Africa’s rich and diverse cultures in all their vibrant expressions and representations”; we’re promised “an unforgettable mosaic of performances\, artistic\, culinary and culturally immersive experiences”. \nIt’s built around the stage\, with artists and DJs from multiple afrocentric genres – including … \nDay 1 / 2 Feb Omah Lay\, Tekno\, Vegedream\, Stonebwoy\, Vigrodeep\, Freek\, Majoos\, Lisandro Cuxi\, Pabi Cooper\, Nur\, Saud G\, DJ Nicki Nicol\nDay 2 / 3 Feb Diamond Platnumz\, Lij Mic\, Maître Gims\, ElGrandeToto\, Hleem Taj Alser\, Sha Sha\, Skales\, Edgar Domingos\, RJ the DJ\, Fafa\, DJ Erika\, Jay Beats \nDay 3 / 4 Feb: Nora Fetahi\, Yemi Alade (that’s her above)\, Koffi Olomide\, Eddie Kenzo\, Kamo Mphela\, Berita\, Kofi Olomide\, Santo\, Bea\, DJ Dollar\, DJ C-Boy \n… plus Royal Phyz\, DJ Mneddy and MC Smiley who’ll be doing all three days. We reckon that lineup covers Congo\, Morocco\, Nigeria\, Ghana\, Tanzania\, Sudan\, Ethiopia\, Angola\, South Africa\, Zimbabwe\, Mozambique\, Kenya and Somalia – some based locally but most flying in for the festival. \nThere’s also art from African artists\, courtesy of Dubai’s Efie Gallery (which actually made its debut on the UAE art scene at the 2021 All Africa Festival); fashion and other goodies in a market on the Festival grounds; and F&B from specialised Afrocentric restaurants\, food trucks and pop-ups. \nThis has to be a load of fun\, and it’s not too pricey: one-day tickets are AED 150 and a three-day pass is AD 250\, with discounts for family passes\, some two-for-one deals\, and surcharges for Golden Circle and ‘Super Meet/Greet‘ tickets. Gates open 2\,30pm each day\, performances from 4pm\, lights out around midnight.\n \nFor ticket holders\, there are shuttle buses from Fujairah\, Al Ain\, Sharjah\, Ajman and several Dubai locations – cost from Dubai AED 25\, from elsewhere AED 35. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Firdaus Orchestra’s Mini Maestros
DESCRIPTION:An introduction to music generally and the orchestra in particular by Expo City Dubai’s all-female Firdaus Orchestra via a concert of classically arranged music for children aged 0 to 6 years old and their parents. The programme includes a range of music\, with arrangements of classic children’s songs plus popular Disney numbers; it’s described as “an immersive and educational musical journey” in an “interactive musical environment”. \nMonica Woodman\, conductor of the Firdaus Orchestra\, is quoted as saying: “the significance of classical music in children’s cognitive development cannot be overstated. Classical music ignites creativity and activates areas of the brain not typically stimulated by other music genres … Mini Maestros will offer a truly unique opportunity for children and their parents to interact with live music”. \nIt sounds great\, though the ticket price (AED 495 for one child and one adult) is surely going to restrict its appeal …

SUMMARY:The Fridge Open Mic Night
DESCRIPTION:Ten-minute performance slots at The Fridge’s well-equipped Alserkal Avenue warehouse venue. It’s first-come first-served\, but we’d expect some judicious balancing (if you’re up for it\, here’s the online registration form); the gig starts at 7pm\, so by our reckoning that’s at least 18-20 performers. The form invites bands\, solo signers\, spoken word artists and generic ‘performers’ to put themselves forward … We think it’s free to both performers and consumers. \n

DESCRIPTION:This new open-air musical event series (in a purpose-built venue that will “boast a stunning backdrop of Saadiyat Island vistas” – though otherwise we’re not sure exactly where it is) kicks off with a concert from the best-selling American singer. Her famous five-octave vocal range is undimmed by time – she’s in her mid 50s now – and she continues to influence vocal styles like merging hip-hop with pop. Could be a good night. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Gypsy Kings
DESCRIPTION:The Gipsy Kings have been around since the 1970s\, bringing the sounds of progressive pop-oriented flamenco music to a worldwide audience selling more than 14 million of their ‘new flamenco’ albums around the globe (their ninth studio album\, Savor Flamenco \, won the Grammy for Best World Music Album in 2013\, and there have been a couple more since) The remaining two original members –Nicolas Reyes and Tonino Baliardo – still work together but often record and tour separately\, albeit still using the Gypsy Kings name; this concert is the Gypsy Kings featuring Nicolas Reyes. You can still expect terrific gitane guitar playing and the exciting new flamenco they have made their own\, with original compositions and clever reworkings.
