As soon as we start exposing this Arabic music more, and showing it to the Canadian public, more and more people will start to attend the concerts, Audeh says. Their inaugural Festival of Arabic Music & Arts, running from October 28 to November 12, is the couple's latest project to this end. The festival brings together international and local artists, both Arab and non-Arab, for concerts, stand-up comedy, theatre and more. Ilham Al-Madfai & Sultans of String Three-time Juno nominees Sultans of String will no doubt be a familiar name to some. Audeh, who calls this two-week festival a dream come true, runs us through five performances you won't want to miss. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
