Podcast on Goethe-Institut concerts around the world
Podcast Issue 69
Music Spaces in the Arab World is a project of the Goethe-Institutes in the region Middle East/North Africa - inspired by the Hamburg-based project www.kuechensessions.de - which offers young musicians as well as seasoned bands an opportunity to present themselves in live concerts as well as online. Since 2016 live concerts are organized as small, local events in a private setting, which means that the select audience can get up close and personal with the musicians. The concerts are held all over the Arabic world, in Alexandria, Beirut, Bethlehem, Baghdad, Gaza, Cairo, Khartoum, Ramallah and Tunis and the audience can experience music ranging from traditional songs to Arabic Alternative Rock.
