London Arab Women Choir
The London Arab Women Choir, a distinguished division of the UK-based London Arab Orchestra, was founded with a mission to promote Arab musical culture on a global scale. This ensemble aims to support women, spotlight their significant contributions to the arts, and enhance their roles in cultural and other societal spheres.
Featuring a women's choir and a band that seamlessly blends traditional Arabic instruments—such as the Oud, Qanun, Ney, and Darbuka—with classical Western instruments, the orchestra predominantly showcases female musicians. The group delves into classical and traditional Arabic music, as well as Arabic and Andalusian muwashahat, captivating diverse audiences with their rich and dynamic soundscapes.
Their repertoire, which spans timeless classics and innovative new compositions, embodies a profound musical dialogue between East and West. Dedicated to harnessing the unifying power of music, London Arab Women strives to bridge cultural divides, foster mutual understanding, and nurture a shared sense of humanity through their pioneering musical approach.
