SUMMARY:Faris Ishaq in Concert
DESCRIPTION:Reflecting on an increasingly digitised world\, JASAD (Arabic for Body) draws from the breath-centred essence of the Nay (ca. 5\,000 BC) to create a distinctive solo setup. In this performance\, Faris Ishaq plays the Nay and a leg-mounted frame drum simultaneously. \nDrawing from his global jazz background\, Faris fuses original Tashbib melodies\, a percussive and improvisational Nay style\, with the improvisational language of jazz. Through a rich palette of extended Nay techniques such as percussive sounds\, multi-phonics and distinctive Nay effects\, Faris creates acoustic illusions that evoke the feel of electronic or looped textures while remaining fully acoustic. Get tickets here. \nFor accessibility information refer to the venue’s website. \nAbout Faris \nPalestinian Nay master\, percussionist and composer\, Faris Ishaq\, charts unexplored territories with the Nay\, an ancient Middle Eastern flute. Rooted in his Palestinian heritage\, Faris celebrates its cultural legacy in today’s modern musical landscape. \n@farisishaq.music
