The American Church of Paris | 65 Quai d'Orsay | 75007 Paris
Tuesday, April 5, 2016 - 19:00
Join us for the second event of the SGA Charity Week with an incredible live performance from the internationally renowned Naïssam Jalal & Rhythms of Resistance. This cosmopolitan ensemble was founded in 2011 by Franco-Syrian flutist and composer Naïssam Jalal and combines jazz, classical, European and Oriental musical influences. The concert will be held at The American Church of Paris and an authetic Syrian reception will be held after the performance. Tickets cost €5 for students and €10 for non-students. All proceeds go towards AUP's student-run club Baytna à Vous who have been fundraising to help Syrian refugees alongside the international associations CODYSSY and Souria Houria. Please sign up on the link below in order to save your spot. You will need to print out your ticket and present a valid ID on the day of the event.
Press Reviews:
RFI (Lydia Mushamalirwa)
"The Franco-Syrian flutist and composer breathes infinite rhythms of resistance, both musically and politically. Named RFI's "Talent Artist," Naissam Jalal makes her flute dance, laugh, sing, groove, yell or even sob. Through her flute she breathes out to us many winds: her quest for justice and freedom, her travels and those she has met along the way, notably Cheikh Tidiane Seck, Fathi Salama or the Palestinian rapper Osloob."
Radio Nova (Rémy Kolpa Kopoul)
"Naïssam Jalal, Lady flute on the groove, has squared the Middle East, but it is on the Parisian scene she became known (and appreciated), grooving with her flute in the jazz galaxy East and African, where she excels. an enterprising and intrepid solo, with a group of young lions of jazz and much more ...
