Description
Kham, meaning "Raw" in Arabic, is the latest project of Bethlehem-based Nay maestro Faris Ishaq who wowed us with his unique playing of this ancient Middle Eastern flute and simultaneous leg-percussion back in December. Inspired by the raw material of the Nay, made from sugarcane, Faris’ artistic journey honours its Palestinian roots and stretches like none other the potential of this minimalist instrument. Faris is joined by Australian jazz harpist and vocalist Tara Minton, creating an intricate dialogue, taking their audience on an immersive sonic journey. Timeless sounds and modern artistry combine, as Faris and Tara elegantly navigate diverse musical landscapes.
We will be raising funds for IDEALS Charity who have been sending doctors to Gaza, at this concert, and invite you all to give generously. Orthopaedic and Trauma surgeon Ms Sarah Phillips of King's Hospital will say a few words about what they do.
Tara Minton is an innovative harpist and vocalist known for her improvisational skills and distinctive sound. She has performed with renowned artists such as Björk, Stan Sulzmann, and the Ronnie Scott’s All Stars, and has released two albums.
Faris has three albums to his name and has performed at prestigious festivals and venues, including Kings Place and the Monterey, Panama, Southwark Cathedral and London Jazz Festivals. Given the sounds he produces, the absence of loop pedals in his performances causes jaws to drop and ears to exult.
The two first met in 2021 during a spontaneous musical improvisation, which sparked a unique creative connection. After several collaborations, Faris invited Tara to join his Kham Project, where Tara’s presence complements the exploration of raw acoustic sounds.
"When the Nay Flute moves towards the authentic self, The soul gradually moves towards the unknown. There is such brilliance in this esteemed work" Le Trio Joubran
