Join us Monday, September 5, 2022 at 6:00pm at the Castle for Nadah El Shazly & Mariel Roberts Presentations.
Nadah El Shazly, Music, Egypt
Producer and vocalist Nadah El Shazly, known for her fresh and fearless performances, is a prominent and captivating voice in the electronic music underworld of Cairo. Her debut album Ahwar radically reinvents the popular music of her homeland and explores new sonic and harmonic frontiers. Using voice, field recordings, and instruments, she creates haunting sound pieces and song forms that hijack perceptions of time. Backing up her release with extensive worldwide touring through a solo set and a four-piece band, Nadah has been featured in many local and international festivals.
Mariel Roberts, Music, USA
American cellist and composer Mariel Roberts is widely recognized not just for her virtuosic performances, but as a “fearless explorer” in her field (Chicago Reader). Her ravenous appetite for collaboration and experimentation as an interpreter, improvisor, and composer have helped create a body of work which bridges avant-garde, contemporary, classical, improvised, and traditional music. Roberts has appeared as a soloist and chamber musician across four continents, and performs regularly on major stages for classical, jazz, and experimental music around the world.
