Item Description

Inspired by Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Project, Egyptian musicologist Mina Girgis and Ethiopian-American singer Meklit Hadero created their own, localized concert experience, one that uses the power of music to raise awareness of the cultural and environmental challenges along the world's longest river. The Nile Project brought together musicians from the 11 countries across the Nile Basin to share a deeply collaborative creative process resulting it its debut album, Aswan, named one of the 5 Must-Hear international Albums of the year by NPR. Now on tour, the Nile Project bridges the polyrhythmic styles of Lake Victoria and the pointed melodies of the Ethiopian highlands with the rich modal traditions of Egypt, Sudan, and others to create the new sound of a shared Nile identity.
