Arab Christmas by Candlelight

This concert is a celebration of the human voice. The voice has been a medium of worship across religions and societies from time immemorial, and tonight is a reminder of the ability of our voices to connect with each other.Celebrating the Byzantine, Aramaic and Coptic traditions, some of the music you will hear tonight can be traced back as far as the 4th century AD. Using the same melodic structures as are used in Qur'anic recitation, these melodies form a symbolic bridge not just to the past, but across seemingly profound cultural divides.We hope that Arab Christmas concert in the Grand Junction iconic venue in the heart of London sends a message of hope and solidarity for 2026, reminding us of our deep-rooted inter-relationships.

Arab Christmas is produced by Arts Canteen in association with Grand Junction.
