It's a full day of Festival events today, Sunday, starting at 09h00 with the Fes Forum at the Batha Museum. The topic is:
What Future for the Middle East? What can we make of the future of the Middle East in light of the changes that have happened in the Arab World?
In keeping with this topic, the afternoon concert at 16h00 in the Museum garden will feature the Hevrat David Hamelech Chorale from Strasbourg in France. Music is an integral part of Jewish life, featuring at every public and family event. The Jews of North Africa are the inheritors, along with the Arabs, of an immense musical heritage known as Andalous music. The Chorale will present the Pyoutim (poems) that are fundamental to their history.
