Presented by Solidarity for Palestinian Human Rights (www.sphr.org) in collaboration with Medical Aid for Palestine (MAP), the Canadian Arab Federation (CAF), and the National Council on Canada-Arab Relations (NCCAR).

 

Sabreen - The Palestinian Music Group was formed in 1980 with a vision focused on the development of the Palestinian modern song, reflecting the humanitarian and cultural reality in general, and the suffering endured from the political situation in particular. Thus, their recordings remain imbued with a sense of hope, yet reflect the frustrations and longing associated with Palestine. Its music is constantly taking new directions and forms and as such, embodies the spirit of creativity and innovation. Sabreen'™s music is a language that is derived from local sources (folklore, traditional music) as well as international sources (jazz, rock, etc.). This unique blend of music and cultures continues to distinguish Sabreen's music as a recognized Palestinian and International voice of resistance.
