Johnny Farraj, percussionist, Arab music scholar, and creator of the website maqamworld will join us for our performance which features some of the real gems of the traditional repertoire. A freewill donation will be collected for The White Helmets a volunteer group of trained medical evacuation personnel who operate in the most dangerous areas in Syria. They have saved the lives of over 100,000 people over the last 5 years. Our concert is supported by the James H. Critchfield Endowment for Middle Eastern Studies.
