Lebanese Master Marcel
Khalifé<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109337035468&s=786&e=0014aL41naASpMXCEcWvpm3Ox0NVtI88AuZ73p3nbDtTg2NmgHkdbZSDO3vhZXjJOAjDIYi0pammNImwxRlQCDK2jB7SxZsySQPXyb3pYulQ3APGyYd1NLzMQ==>
will
perform the prophetic poems of the Arab World's most renowned and beloved
poet,  Mahmoud Darwish,<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1109337035468&s=786&e=0014aL41naASpMudickoEZxdNSfaVp5huFbFHnN5gV3fbxNnlf3ZEk-qwNelWR2SOqnky-VAIxfuCyvSq3ZCZkrHBEyB_ncOn_57i-OzyR6B5pgOEyp7G95UKktqFZsZoIKJzNG3XAOnV8Rvt1FWdctW3nKBt9E7NAZHRTua4ULbqvI2BwwhpBZUQ==>
and
pay tribute to the Arab Spring.

 The poetry of Mahmoud Darwish, the melodies of Marcel Khalifé--resonating
across the Arab world from the Middle East to North Africa, rising above
the din of conflict and poverty, singing instead of the shade of
grapevines, the bright eyes of loved ones, the heartache of divisions and
decline that could be healed, love that could be returned.

Marcel Khalifé, Lebanese composer, singer, and master of the* 'oud* (Arabic
lute), evokes this world, honoring the spirit of his late friend and
associate the late Mahmoud Darwish, who passed away in 2008. Darwish was a
strikingly original Palestinian poet whose poetry has been translated to
more than 25 languages worldwide and extensively published in the US.

Khalifé's new concert program,* Fall of the Moon: An Homage to the Poet
Mahmoud Darwish and a Salute to the Arab Spring,* revisits and re-imagines
the ties that bound these two powerful iconic advocates of Arab culture in
a program that weaves the rich complexities of a great history and the
diversity of Arab cultures with the humanity and deep yearning expressed by
the current monumental events of the Arab Spring sweeping the Arab world.

Marcel Khalifé will be accompanied by his 12-member *Al Mayadine Ensemble. *
