In a breathtaking performance that resonated through the Emirate of Fujairah on January 10, 2024, the Al Multaqa Chamber Orchestra took center stage at the Fujairah International Oud Forum, marking the beginning of their highly anticipated world tour.
The melodies that emanated from its strings told tales of a rich history, a testament to the enduring spirit of tribes and nations.
What took centerstage was the unveiling of a new music genre. Al Multaqa Chamber Orchestra introduced a revolutionary blend, seamlessly intertwining African rhythms, soulful Arabian harmony, and the unique tonality of Sudanese pentatonic chords. This innovative symphony not only resonated through the concert hall but marked the birth of a genre poised to redefine the global music landscape.
African-Arab artists and music composers echoed the spirit of the evening. Sudanese musician and composer Sharhabeel Ahmed once said:
"Music is a universal language, transcending borders and connecting hearts."
These words reverberated in the air as Al Multaqa Chamber Orchestra broke new ground, fostering connections not only between musical traditions but also between continents.
Donned In Heritage
As the lights dimmed, the Orchestra took the spotlight in tailored pieces from the Al Multaqa Fashion Heritage line, a collection designed exclusively to preserve and celebrate cultural legacies. This collaboration between music and fashion served as a bridge connecting the past to the future, encapsulating the essence of a cultural continuum. Furthermore, the orchestra's commitment to global sustainability shone through as they collaborated with traditional designers in Africa, advocating for ethical practices in the fashion industry.
"في هذا اليوم السعادة بداخلنا كبيرة وهي رؤية ولادة جديدة لأوركسترا الملتقى من اجل تكوين صوت جديد للذائقة الفنية التي خلقت وسط احاسيس ومشاعر مختلفة من على خشبة مسرح الملتقى الدولي للعود بحضور ورعاية سمو الشيخ محمد بن حمد بن محمد الشرقي بدأت البذرة من ستة شهور واليوم بدأنا في انطلاقها وسط اسماء لها شأن كبير من حيث الثقافة والسينما والموسيقى كوزيرة الثقافة د. ايناس عبد الدايم و الاستاذ نصير شمه"
On this wonderful day, our hearts are filled with joy as it marks the beginning of a new chapter for AlMultaqa Chamber Orchestra, symbolizing the birth of a new musical era. This incredible moment began six months ago, and today, under the gracious presence and support of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, we see it come to life. The stage has been a canvas for a mix of emotions, and we're honored to have esteemed individuals, including the Minister of Culture, Dr. Inas Abdel Dayem, and the distinguished Mr. Nasir Shamma, join us on this remarkable journey.” - Al Multaqa Maestro Ahmad Shamma
