Since 2016, the Nahawand Project, has been searching for a dialogue between the Arab culture and music and that of the Western world. Songs of Arabic tradition, instrumental and vocal, together with poetry, traverse the poignant beauty of love and the merciless wounds that every war leaves in the lives of men, women and children. Before the war, Aleppo was a tourist city, with its own international airport, with monuments and the longest and most beautiful souk in the world. It had ancient mosques and churches, museums and lively cultural activity with poets, filmmakers, artists and theaters. Everything was destroyed, except for the ?fortified citadel?, a sign of the rebirth of the city and its inhabitants. This album is dedicated to Aleppo and to all children who were born and raised in the war: It is a hymn to freedom and hope.
