Sing To Me a Little Jawaahir Dance Company ignites the stage with "Sing To Me A Little," an extravaganza of Arab dance, music, and talent that only Jawaahir can deliver. Jawaahir's 19 dancers perform ancient traditions and stunning contemporary interpretations, collaborating with some of the most acclaimed Arab artists working today: world-class choreographers Sahra Saeeda and Yasmina Ramzy, commissioned by Jawaahir to each create new work for this concert; Lebanese singer Ghada Derbas, whose vocal interpretations define the classic Arab sound; and multi-instrumentalist Michael Ibrahim, Director of the National Arab Orchestra, fresh from a recent Prairie Home Companion appearance. Long-time collaborator and violin virtuoso Georges Lammam returns as Music Director, leading his stunning nationally-recognized Ensemble, including Minnesota musicians Tim O'Keefe, Laura Harada, and Salah Fattah. All of this – along with new choreography and breathtaking solo performance by Jawaahir Artistic Director Cassandra Shore.
