The occasion today to remember an old adventure from June 2013 is the recently released during the pandemic concert video by Ibrahim Maalouf of his album “Diagnostic”, recorded in Istanbul.

Today we prepare to say goodbye to the summer and listen to pieces from two new summer projects. Both with an innovative combination of instruments, interesting new experiments and a different sound. 

Leszek Możdżer studied the classical piano up to his teens, when Nirvana’s music came out. Then everything changed and he decided to change his direction.

While we were gathering the music for our African playlist, we were surprised to find gems in our collection of records that do not age, and are as accurate today as ever. One of these albums is the warm summery “Ne La Thiass” by the Senegalese musician Cheikh Lô.

The musical innovator Joseph Tawadros this time combined his oud with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra, led by conductor Benjamin Northey, with James Tawadros on percussions.

Today we listen to the different music by the guys from the Istanbul based band AYYUKA.
