Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra with Daniel Harding


For decades, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra has been ranked among the very best orchestras in the world, alongside the Berlin Philharmonic and Vienna Philharmonic. Some of the greatest conductors ever – from Willem Mengelberg to Bernard Haitink and Riccardo Chailly – have worked with the orchestra and written music history. For the first time in 10 years, the prestigious Concertgebouw Orchestra is now returning to the Gulf region, to offer music lovers some of the world’s most beautiful classical music. For its first night in Abu Dhabi, the orchestra will perform the work of a composer it is most closely linked to: Gustav Mahler. Having performed some of the greatest Mahler recordings, the orchestra will play his last completed symphony: the majestic 9th.

Mahler’s 9th is considered one of the most accomplished symphonic works of all time. It is an immense homage to love and a musical celebration of life of an intensity unheard of or since.

National Ballet of Cuba: Carmen

 

Based on Bizet’s celebrated opera, Carmen tells a tale of an enchanting seductress who radiates defiance and freedom, a tale with an ending far more complex than a doomed love affair.

The staging by Ballet Nacional de Cuba focusses on the intention of revealing the essential contradictions between Carmen’s rebellious personality and the forces of her time.

The gypsy Carmen, a beautiful and sensual woman, gets in a fight that leads to her arrest. Carmen captures the heart of Don Jose, an army corporal who leaves his job and joins her world. But Carmen quickly wearies of Don Jose’s possessiveness. When she turns her attention to the dashing toreador Escamillo, Don Jose’s jealousy erupts into violence and fate shortly defines the destiny of the main characters.

Israel Philharmonic Orchestra: Gala Concert


The Israel Philharmonic Orchestra was founded in 1936 by Bronislaw Huberman. Huberman assembled a professional symphony orchestra of high calibre, consisting of Europe’s most talented Jewish symphonic players. Arturo Toscanini conducted the opening concerts in December 1936 and again in April 1938. The orchestra’s name was changed to the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra (IPO) in 1948, after the establishment of the State of Israel.
Today, the IPO ranks among the world’s best orchestras and has played for many decades under the baton of legendary conductor, Zubin Mehta.
The orchestra has toured the world and played with the greatest performers in classical music including Valery Gergiev, Daniel Barenboim, Radu Lupu, Pinchas Zukerman, Gil Shaham, Gustavo Dudamel, Evgeny Kissin, Kurt Masur and his son Ken-David, Mischa Maisky, Christoph von Dohnanyi, Yefim Bronfman, Maxim Vengerov, Murray Perahia and Yuja Wang. Since 2020, the orchestra has been playing under the artistic direction of star conductor Lahav Shani, who rose to fame as Chief Conductor of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra.
In line with its tradition of creating unique high-level artistic events for the Gulf region, Abu Dhabi Classics will present the first concert by this prestigious orchestra in the region. For its one-night-only appearance in the UAE capital, the IPO will perform Gustav Mahler’s majestic Symphony No. 1. Written between 1884 and 1888, the symphony was inspired by the works of the German romantic period and imagines in music the possibility of a noble and heroic life. Mahler also conceived of the work as a tone poem in symphonic form. Nicknamed 'Titan', as a reference to Jean Paul Richter’s novel, the symphony is a wonderful introduction to Mahler’s musical language and offers the perfect programme for a truly historic night of music.

Demos Project: Philharmonie de Paris Concert

 

In cooperation with the Demos Project of the Philharmonie de Paris in France, the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi presents the result of its musical training with specialised teachers and public school children from across the emirate.

Since October 2021, ten teachers have travelled from Paris to Abu Dhabi to teach children different musical instruments, with the aim of creating a youth orchestra (featuring violin, cello, viola, wind and brass instruments, timbal, oud, qanoon, and darbouka) for the emirate.

The 80 children, who had no previous knowledge of music, will now be joined by the teachers to perform their first musical pieces on stage. The unique event will not only show how classical music is interpreted by younger generations but also underline Abu Dhabi’s new status as a UNESCO City of Music, where music is part of every household and musical practice of young musicians is supported.

Umsiyat


Le Trio Joubran


Umsiyat presents a real highlight for its 2022 Edition: the Trio Joubran!


Samir, Wissam and Adan Joubran are three brothers descending from a family of « Oud » makers and players since four generations... the grand grand-father, the grand-father, the father and now, Samir, Wissam and Adnan have transformed this instrument into a passion, a skill, a life...


Their mastery of « Oud » is singular and so are the harmony and the synchronization that they perform all over the world, before different publics united by the Trio's authenticity and excellence.


The three brothers are originally from Palestine and have become today musicians who are sought after worldwide, progressing in their art thanks to a big amount of individual and collective effort and to the deep love and respect of music and public.

Jazz Night: New Jazz in Egypt


As part of the Umsiyat concert series, Trio Abozekrys will be performing in Abu Dhabi for the very first time. The trio is the first musical meeting between two brothers, and its music tells a story of travelling back and forth between Egypt and France.


Earlier in their careers, the Abozekry brothers never collaborated with each other – each of them following their own artistic path. But a few years ago, they united in a musical dialogue, forming a visionary and explosive project that demonstrates to audiences how interesting contemporary instrumental music produced in the Middle East can be.


No pyramids, camels, or pharaohs! Trio Abozekrys is an experience from a totally new generation of eccentric and energetic musicians.


The Abozekry brothers – Mohamed on oud and Abdallah on saz, accompanied by Nicolas Thé on drums – bring new flavour to Middle Eastern sounds, changing expectations about what jazz can be.
