Platforming Palestinian artists is a crucial form of resistance. That's why we are proud to support this evening by @MarsmUK showcasing the rich Palestinian tradition of Oud music by three of the most prominent Oud masters of our time, @LeTrioJoubran 🇵🇸 marsm.co.uk/event/le-trio-…

Award-winning singer, composer and flutist Nai Barghouti said of her lyrics addressing Israel’s oppression: “I would simply call this being a Palestinian. It is who I am. Our concerns inevitably seep through our music: we can’t separate ourselves from our identity.”
