Damascus-SANA
The songs and melodies of the generational musician, Mohamed Abdel Wahab, were the star of the concert, which was performed by clarinet and piano player Bassem Salha on the Drama Theater at Dar Al-Assad for Culture and Arts.
Through this concert, Salha redistributed Abdel Wahab's works to present them with a new modern vision, using new musical templates such as jazz and rock and roll, using the clarinet to produce pure Arabic maqamat and taking into account the sound of Arabs.
The concert included two lyrical paragraphs, with the voice of the singer Lubna Nafaa, for the songs “All This Was Les” and (On a Day and a Night), which she sang from his late tunes, Warda Al Jazairia.
The audience also listened to the tunes set by Abdel Wahab for the songs (Fikrouni - Atmakhtari - Al-Qamh - Amal Hayati - The World Is Sweet - We Begin From Where the Story - Abjad Hawz) in addition to the piece (Sadness) written by Basem Salha.
The concert was attended by musicians Bassem Al-Jaber (bass guitar - Hoshank Habash saz), Yazan Al-Jajah (classical guitar), Yazan Salha (piano), Nadine Taqi El-Din (electric guitar), Michel Khayat (drums), Ragheb Jbeil (oriental percussion) and Imran Abu Yahya (Percussion).
It is worth mentioning that Bassem Salha, born in 1976, graduated from the Higher Institute of Music in 1999, specializing in clarinet and piano, and a professor at the Farid Al-Atrash Institute in As-Suwayda. He accompanied a large group of Arab singers and launched his first musical work, including arrangements for oriental pieces with his own compositions.
