Le Cri du Caire(EG/FR)

More about the artist

Singer, writer, poet, and expressionist Abdullah Miniawy became, in the wake of the revolution, an artistic emblem for Egypt’s agitated youth. Halfway between rock, Sufi poetry, jazz, spoken word and oriental flourishes, Miniawy’s quartet ”Le Cri du Caire” creates an intense metaphorical universe, that transcends identities and borders.

Spirituality and liberty shine through his music, which carries the hopes of the oppressed, facing political, social and religious repression.

To the circular breathing of Peter Corser’s sax, to the barock strings of Karsten Hochapfel’s cello and the musical flights of Erik Truffaz’s trumpet, responds the gripping voice of Abdullah Miniawy. His Sufi singing, whispered or cried out loud on top of hypnotic electronic loops, drives the audience into a mystical trance.

On stage:
Abdullah Miniawy – vocals, texts, music
Peter Corser – saxophone, clarinet, music
Karsten Hochapfel – cello
Erik Truffaz – trumpet

Picnic theater

This is a picnic event, or as we like to call is: Picnic theater. That means that you may bring your own food and drinks to the event.

It doesn’t matter what you bring – take-away pizza at one table is followed by oysters and caviar at the next. Bring what you feel like, and don't forget to bring glasses and cuttlery!

Please note that you may not bring food if you have tickets for the balcony, only drinks and snacks.
