Sadaqa & schola cantorum weimar (DEU|SYR|POL)The word sadaqa in Arabic means friendship. In this case it’s nuanced to connote friendship between all the peoples and generations living on Syrian soil – whether of Kurdish, Armenian, Assyrian or Arab bloodlines. Sadaqa is the name both of a quartet and a project conceived by Manfred Bründl, jazz bassist and professor of music in faraway Weimar. For the concert the musicians are joined by the schola cantorum weimar’s youth choir for this multi-facetted, heartfelt conversation between oriental traditions and occidental jazz.
