Lebanese-Canadian project Jerusalem In My Heart is back with a new record called “Daqa’iq Tudaiq”.
The third full-length album from the Montréal-Beirut contemporary Arabic audio-visual duo sees composer-producer Radwan Ghazi Moumneh realize his long-held dream of recording a modern orchestral version of Egyptian classic “Ya Garat Al Wadi” by legendary composer Mohammad Abdel Wahab.
Not content with the daring task of assembling a 15-piece orchestra in Beirut, Jerusalem In My Heart also enlisted renowned Montréal-Cairo musician/composer Sam Shalabi (Land Of Kush), as arranger and musical director for the sessions.
Stream “Daqa’iq Tudaiq” LP on Bandcamp.
