Rhythms from Kuwait
On Tuesday 03 September, I performed at Theatre Royal Drury Lane in London’s West End for the ‘Rhythms in Kuwait show’.
This show celebrated 125 years of diplomatic ties between Britain and Kuwait. Over twenty musicians from Kuwait flew over to join us, alongside over fifteen singers and eight dancers. It was an incredible event that also saw musicians from Britain join in, to celebrate the collaboration between the two countries. I was asked to fix six wind and brass instrumentalists, and I’m very glad to thank Ellen Wilkinson (oboe), Jai Patel (trombone), David Alymer (French horn), Sue Letts (clarinet) and Cameron Johnson (trumpet) for joining me in this performance.
Huge thanks to conductor Khaled Noori and the Scene Maker’s team, led by Reham Alsamerai and Ahmad Alsalhi for the experience. I’m looking forward to working with the team soon!
