Event overview
Singer, musician and broadcaster Reem Kelani will give a talk under the title “Music and Resistance”, with reference to her recent experiences of music and revolution in Egypt.
Palestinian singer, musician and broadcaster Reem Kelani released her debut album “Sprinting Gazelle – Palestinian Songs from the Motherland and the Diaspora” (Fuse Records) in February 2006 to critical acclaim. Representing the culmination of twenty years work, which included research in Palestine, in Palestinian refugee camps and the Palestinian Diaspora into old traditional songs, Sprinting Gazelle is a fully independent production. The excellent reviews which the album has gained and which continue to flow in from across the globe are testament to its quality.
Having spent many years touring and working with musicians from the countries she visited, Reem has focused her efforts in the UK on working with non-Arab musicians and introducing more of them to Arabic and Palestinian music.
All welcome
