Abdelwahab at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, Featuring Fatma Said & Nader Abbassi
Mohamed Abdelwahab was a great admirer of the world of classical music having drawn endless inspiration from the likes of Beethoven, Verdi, Tchaikovsky or Schubert just to name a few. The concert at Drury Lane is a homage to this wonderful inspiration that produced an immortal heritage of beautiful music.
Through the perspective of The Abdelwahab Estate, and the mesmerising voice of Egyptian Soprano Fatma Said, the concert takes the audience through symphonic reinterpretations of a fragment of Abdelwahab’s incredibly rich musical journey.
