Faris Ishaq: Through the Noise at Oslo Hackney | JASAD Solo

05/06 20:00

London

In-Person

For this one-off performance in London, Bethlehem-born Faris presents Jasad. Arabic for Body, the project draws from the breath-centred essence of the Nay, one of the oldest flutes still in use, with deep Palestinian and Middle Eastern roots (ca. 5000 B.C.)

In a distinctive setup, he simultaneously performs the Nay alongside a leg-mounted frame drum and foot percussion. Faris fuses Palestinian Tashbib—a percussive, improvisational Nay style—with the rhythmic footwork of Palestinian Dabke dance.

In his original compositions and arrangements, Faris draws on his global jazz background to blend Tashbib with Jazz, merging these deeply rooted improvisational languages into a distinctive musical fusion.
