Arabic Songs in Londonderry

Listen and learn with Mohamad Noor. Mohamad was a professional singer in Syria before finding a new home in Derry. We will learn to sing some songs, insh’allah. Everyone is welcome to this interactive singing workshop, whether you are a confident singer or prefer to listen.

Our friends at BBC Radio Foyle’s Irish language programme are kindly featuring this workshop on their subsequent show. They will be recording Mohamad singing and interviewing specific people from 6.30 to 7.15pm.

This workshop is part of Sole Purpose Productions’ Sharek Project funded by Derry & Strabane District Council. Recently, a dozen families from war-torn Syria found safe harbour in Derry. The Sharek Project celebrates this latest diversity, and provides channels for friendship and integration with new residents.
