About this event

When words no longer suffice, music takes their place:
it was during his wife’s battle with cancer that Dhafer Youssef came to this realisation. Transcending the gruelling ordeal of illness, the musician went on to record a sensitive album celebrating his intimate companionship with his life partner and her resilience, an album in which every note exudes love and admiration.

The artists: Dhafer Youssef (oud, vocals); Daniel Garcia (piano); Mario Rom (trumpet); Swaeli Mbappé (electric bass); Tao Ehrlich (drums)
