Audio-Visual Listening Party + Live Performance by Ziad Sinno
This autumn, experience an evening where rhythm, storytelling, and solidarity come together.
Join us at Riverside, London for a special live celebration of Dom Tak, a pioneering Arabic podcast series from Sowt that uncovers the rich musical traditions of Egypt, Palestine, and Lebanon.
In this brand-new season, titled Music Beyond Barriers, we shine a light on the powerful contribution of disabled musicians to the Arabic music landscape—challenging stereotypes and celebrating diversity.
Produced in collaboration with Marsm and supported by the British Council’s International Collaboration Grants, this event bridges cultures through sound, dialogue, and performance.
