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.

SUMMARY:Lubaina Himid and Magda Stawarska: Plaited Time / Deep Water
DESCRIPTION:Lubaina Himid’s first exhibition in the region is something of a coup for Sharjah Art Foundation. Developed over several years\, it has been conceived together with Magda Stawarska\, who is internationally renowned for her practice of ‘inner listening’—a collaborative process of listening to cities. The results of their intimate encounters unfold across multiple media\, such as in the four new commissions presented within the exhibition. \nPlaited Time / Deep Water is imagined in dialogue with Sharjah’s architecture\, its soundscapes\, and the feelings evoked by its proximity to the sea. At the heart of the show is a newly imagined presentation of Zanzibar (1998–2023)\, a series of paintings by Himid situated within a distinct architecture and sonic installation created by Stawarska; in the series\, life-long journeys of return are presented as a sensorial encounter for visitors who are invited to listen and experience memory unfolding. Across the galleries\, daily ritual is explored alongside the artists’ continued engagement with language and its potential embodiment. In Plaited Time / Deep Water\, the personal archive finds its rejoinder in Sharjah’s changing light through lyric\, voice and song. \nThe exhibition is curated by Dr Omar Kholeif\, Sharjah Art Foundation’s Director of Collections and Senior Curator. “In Plaited Time / Deep Water\, the personal archive finds its rejoinder in Sharjah’s changing light through lyric\, voice and song. The results of Lubaina’s and Magda’s encounters can be experienced across multiple media in this exhibition\, as the artists use painting\, poetry\, language and sound to unfold their own histories and memories\, as well as those held within Sharjah\,” said Dr Kholeif. \nAbive: Lubaina Himid\, In Your Dreams (2021/2022)\n \nTo 28 January.

SUMMARY:Future Talks X Calligraphy Biennale | Artist Mattar Bin Lahej
DESCRIPTION:Mattar Bin Lahej on the Museum of the Future as a public art masterpiece. He’s the calligraphic artist who created the museum’s distinctive facade; this talk aims to deliver an insight into its art\, technology and positioning\, how it transcends traditional architectural boundaries and assumes the role of public art within the cityscape. Presented by Museum of the Future as a contribution to Dubai Culture’s ongoing Calligraphy Biennale. \nIt’s free\, but in the Museum’s Auditorium; we think this means you’ll have to pay for general admission (AED 149).

SUMMARY:Nabil Nahas: Tethys
DESCRIPTION:After months of renovations\, Lawrie Shabibi is reopening with a show by the pioneering Lebanese American artist Nabil Nahas — who was actually the first artist Lawrie Shabibi exhibited\, back in 2011. \nNahas looks like a great choice. Noted as a master of colour\, texture and atmosphere\, Nahas takes his inspiration from a diverse range of influences – especially nature\, and the geometric and chromatic qualities of Arabic art. His best known series are his thickly encrusted starfish and fractal paintings\, built up by layer upon layer of acrylic mixed with pumice and finished in vivid colours; and his landscapes\, expressive portraits of cedars\, olive trees and palms that reconnect him with the places of his childhood. \nTo 5 January. \nAbove: Nabil Nahas\, Untitled (2023) \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Macbeth
DESCRIPTION:A new production of Shakespeare’s tragedy by ETT (English Touring Theatre)\, now touring after it opened a few weeks ago at Shakespeare North Playhouse in Britain. Directed by ETT’s Artistic Director\, Richard Twyman\, the play speaks to a world we find ourselves living in now\, asking why Macbeth has haunted our fears and nightmares for centuries and what lessons this cautionary tale is still trying to communicate to us … \nThe production emphasises the politics – “a struggling and divided nation\, tearing itself apart. So\, when the Macbeths see their chance at the crown\, why shouldn’t they take it?” – but looks beyond the naked opportunism that seems so familiar to Western audiences: “Dreams quickly turn to nightmares\, humanity erodes\, nature stirs. As society strives to make sense of the darkness that sits inside it\, how long will it take for people to fight back against the endless cycle of violence and corruption?” \nIt’s a co-production with Northern Stage\, Shakespeare North Playhouse and Théâtres de la Ville de Luxembourg. There are further performances at at 3pm and 8pm on 4 November\, and at 3pm on 5 November.

SUMMARY:Candlelight: Vivaldi's Four Seasons
DESCRIPTION:One of the most successful productions in the Candlelight Concerts series – “classical music concerts aimed at democratising access to classical music by allowing people all over the world to enjoy live music candlelit performances”.  The Vivaldi favourite was written as concerti for violin and orchestra\, but it’s often arranged for string quartet and this is what we’ll be getting here – the Candelabra string quartet\, “illuminated by thousands of candles”. \nThe programme also includes Karl Jenkins’ criminally underperformed Palladio suite\, which runs at around 20 minutes; with the Vivaldi clocking in at 40-45 or so\, this should give you slightly more than an hour of candlelit concert. There are performances at 7pm and 9pm. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Boogie Box Festival
DESCRIPTION:Boogie Box – the longest running House and Techno party series in the UAE\, probably the wider Gulf region\, and quite possibly in the whole Middle East – is celebrating its 13th birthday with a European-style all nighter. Hassan from Boogie Box says the lineup has been chosen to be representative of Boogie Box’s musical philosophy; the festival provides “a platform to artists and DJs to express themselves with longer sets and musical journeys … a high-calibre and creative show that incorporates mood over flash\, immersive over extreme\, and quality over quantity production”. \nSustainability is a key theme – “after all\, the only footprints we would like to see are the ones marked on the dancefloor” and a percentage of profits will be donated to a social responsibility initiative. \nThere are two stages for the 16-hours. Stage One will be geared towards Big Room Energy\, including international headliner DJ Boring\, the very excellent Levon Vincent\, and techno icon DJ Matrixxman. Stage Two promises a quirkier\, moodier and more diverse selection: Anthea\, Molly and Isolee (aka Rajko Mueller) – all fine picks. Both stages will be supported by a goodly collection of names from the regional scene: Angry Suzy\, Nesta\, Maks\, and Boogie Box residents Cyrill Reaidy\, Hani J\, Tristan Girault\, Shadi Megallaa\, and Boogie Box main man Hassan Alwan himself. \nThe Dunes will have the usual food and beverage options\, a vibrant marketplace\, and a camping area (the AED 125 early bird ticket includes a campsite space\, or you take on of the Dunes’ glamping options: AED 750 gets you an Igloo tent and two general admission tickets\, for instance). There are table packages from AED 4\,000; that gets you a table for four plus ‘VIP Backstage Tickets’ and some drinks (12 beers\, one wine\, one ‘bottle of premium spirit’). \nWhat’s not to like?

SUMMARY:Every Brilliant Thing
DESCRIPTION:Second and final performance for his highly recommended one-hander\, directed and performed by the Junction’s Gautam Goenka. As his mother battles chronic depression\, a child creates a list of every thing they can think of that makes life worth living. As the child grows\, so does the list. Looking back on a life of ups and downs\, the man takes the audience on an inspiring journey that celebrates finding joy in the mundane and being grateful for the simple pleasures hiding all around us. \nAt once intimate and interactive\, this touching\, funny\, and uplifting play (originally seen at the Junction earlier this year) chronicles life’s small joys and reveals the lengths to which we will go for those we love. The Guardian called it “one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see about depression – and possibly one of the funniest plays you’ll ever see\, full stop”. Written by the English playwright/director Duncan Macmillan with actor/writer/comedian Johnny Donahoe\, it sold out at three consecutive Edinburgh Festivals; it was also a big hit when the Junction did it in Dubai 18 months ago \n
