Dal’ Ouna Ensemble Concert

Book Talk by Author Sandy Tolan

Lubbock, Texas

Join us for the Dal' Ouna Ensemble concert on Wednesday, March 7. The concert, which features the powerful music of Ramzi Aburedwan and his Arabic-French ensemble, is a fusion of Palestinian folk, classical and jazz music.

The evening also includes a talk by the award-winning author and journalist, Sandy Tolan. His book, Children of the Stone, tells the dramatic story of Ramzi Aburedwan's life growing up in a Palestinian refugee camp. Aburedwan went on to realize his dream of founding the music school Al-Kamandjati, which had centers in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon. The book conveys Aburedwan's belief in the power of music to transform lives and resist oppression. There will be a book signing at the end of the concert.
