Al-Azhar
Park was filled with music lovers on Friday night who were treated to an
eclectic evening of great music. French saxophone player Sylvain Beuf and piano
trio Daerr-Bica-Stick performed beautiful Jazz that more than made up for the
long walks between the two stages.
As the
evening progressed and the temperature dropped, audiences forgot about the
chill when UK act Soweto Kinch, featuring Arabian Knights and Arab League All
Stars, took to the stage. Their electric performance and amazing energy
resulted in an enthusiastic audience participation which inspired a freestyle
rap.
Properly
warmed up anticipation was high for the closing concert by Moroccan singer Oum
and her unbelievable smooth voice did not disappoint and made for a wonderful
finale to an evening of great music.
The venues
in Al-Azhar Park, surrounded by the sights and sounds of Cairo and against the
backdrop of the Citadel, provided a spectacular setting for the concerts. On
Friday the music during one of the performances was punctuated by fireworks set
off at a nearby wedding, creating a true festival atmosphere that has been
missing from Cairo for quite some time.
