The Zaki Nassif Program for Music at the American University of Beirut (AUB) is set to enchant audiences with a special concert titled "Daughters of This Aged Stream," featuring an evening of captivating duets that traverse the rich tapestry of music history. Scheduled for February 1, 2024 at the AUB Assembly Hall, this concert promises to be a memorable event, highlighting the timeless beauty and dynamism of female vocal harmonies through the ages.
Music has always been a cornerstone of Lebanese culture, embodying the country’s resilient spirit and its rich artistic heritage. The Zaki Nassif Program has been at the forefront of preserving this legacy, promoting music education and organizing concerts that celebrate both traditional and contemporary sounds.
The concert will feature the talented Louisa El Khoury, a soprano known for her expressive range and emotional depth, alongside Natasha Nassar, a contralto whose powerful voice resonates with the soulful nuances of classical music. Accompanied by the skilled pianist Olga Bolun, these artists will explore the intricate dynamics of duets from the medieval era to the present day. Their performances are expected to blend seamlessly into each other, creating magical moments that underscore the unique bond and understanding that can exist between two vocalists.
This journey through musical eras is not just an exhibition of vocal prowess but also a lesson in music history. Audiences will be treated to a carefully curated selection of pieces that illustrate the evolution of music over the centuries. Each duet, chosen for its historical significance and artistic merit, will offer insight into the themes, techniques and emotional expressions prevalent during its time.
The event, hosted by the prestigious AUB Assembly Hall, provides the perfect backdrop to this exploration of musical artistry. The hall’s renowned acoustics will ensure that each note is heard in its fullest beauty, allowing the audience to fully immerse themselves in the experience.
