The Layali Zaman Academy Orchestra presents traditional and contemporary music of North Africa and the Middle East. With Maestro Adel Eskander, you will be taken on a musical journey that features performances by vocal and instrumental stars from these regions. Every concert is based on the music, of legendary composers and singers, that spans decades; from their identified Golden Age Of Music (1950s – 1970s) to the present.

This 30-piece orchestra combines traditional Arab world instruments, Qanun, Oud, Nay and hand drums, with Western European instruments to create an exciting evening of music and song. Improvisations on the traditional instruments will transport you in time and space. As for the singing, even if you don’t understand the language, you will experience an emotional connection to each song.
