As I Was Moving Ahead - We Loved Each Other So Much
Milan, 27.10.24
A three hours journey weaved as a love letter to Beirut, Lebanon, Fairuz, and all interconnected
threads of resistence.
Featuring Fairuz and the Rabhani family's songs and interviews, sounds of Sabah, Robert
Maalouf, Baligh Hamid, Omar Khorshid, Tony Benn Feghaly, Nagat Al Saghira, and others, for
the first and second hour.
In the third hour, a tapestry of underground contemporary sounds from Lebanon, Syria, Egypt,
and Palestine with Soapkills, Sanam, Nancy Mounir, Yasmine Hamdan, Zeid Hamdan, Charbel
Haber, Dirar Kalash, and others.
Spoken words by me featuring translations of Fairuz songs, field recordings of Beirut and
Bethlehem by Yasmine Hamdan, Charbel Haber, Elias Anastas, and experimental guitars by
Dirar Kalash.
A special thanks to Clayton Vomero and Amar Ediriwira for inviting me to pencil this soundscape
within the context the current circumstances and on the occasion of the screening of the
documentary We Loved Each Other So Much by Jack Janssen.
