French-Lebanese maestro Bachar Mar-Khalifé is set to take the stage at Lebanon's Oakenhouse in Byblos with an intimate live performance on April 24th.
A free-spirited singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist, Bachar Mar-Khalifé is one of the most renowned talents of the region's contemporary music scene, whose music effortlessly weaves classical, traditional, jazz, electronic and rock influences. His versatile artistry earned him the Sacem Grand Prix des Musiques du Monde in 2021. He has also done several collaborative projects, taking on work with the Orchestra National de France and the Ensemble Intercontemporian, as well as scoring several films, including 'Sous le Ciel d'Alice', which won the Michel Legrand Prize in 2022.
Oakenhouse is a platform launched by Lebanon's eco-conscious music festival, dedicated to amplifying regional musicians, providing both emerging and established artists with a safe space to create, connect, grow and gain international recognition – all while immersing themselves in Lebanon's cultural heritage. The show is part of Oakenhouse's 'Support the Artist' series in collaboration with Beirut's Tunefork Studios, which aims to keep the music culture alive in Lebanon and celebrate the talents shaping the region's music scene today.
The event is held at a very limited capacity, with all of the proceeds directed to support the creation of an artist residency at Oakenhouse. To RSVP, head to the link in @oakenhouse's Instagram bio.
