Born in England and raised in Kuwait, Reem Kelani is
one of the foremost scholars and performers of Palestinian music. With
her engaging stage presence, angelic voice, sparkling wit, and a band
that features some of the finest traditional and jazz players in
London, Reem charts the cultural terrain of Arabic music. Her powerful
concerts feature traditional songs learned on visits to Palestinian
refugee camps, and her own compositions, that have brought audiences
around the world to their feet.
“(The
performance) had everything: drama, emotion, education, humour, power,
musicianship, surprises, and above all a level of musical and personal
integrity that shone through the whole set.” –
