Syrian songs, Sufi poems
Basma Jabr: Voice & Percussion
Orwa Saleh: Oud
This duo is a balance between the elegant heritage of Syrian songs and the contemporary freedom of expression, a journey in the words of the Sufi poems in a space where Basma lights the stage with the warmth of her voice surrounded by the deep and unique style of Orwa’s oud.
After working together on many projects, Orwa and Basma performed as due for the very first time in 2016, trying to explore this musical freedom using fewer elements and focusing more on the possibilities that one oud and one voice could reach.
