The National Arab Orchestra performs at David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center in New York on Sunday, October 18, with Lebanese-American singer Michael Meshal as a featured vocalist.
The concert closes Aswat: Worlds of Arab Music, a four-day festival running October 15 to 18 and billed as the largest celebration of Arab music in the United States. The orchestra, founded by Michael Ibrahim and based in the Detroit area, performs classical and contemporary Arab repertoire with a full ensemble.
Meshal, born in Lebanon and raised in the United States, is known for a repertoire spanning classical Arabic song and contemporary arrangements, and the Lincoln Center date pairs him with the orchestra for the festival's finale.
Tickets and door times are listed on the Lincoln Center event page. The show is one of the headline world-music dates on New York's October concert calendar.
