Artist to Artist: Ali Chahrour
Felix Meritis, Saturday, June 13 at 03:30 PM GMT+2
Diana Al-Halabi & ghenwa abou fayad
How do you continue working when the reality of war finds itself next to your rehearsal space? What is it like to create art amidst destructive forces? And how does the current situation in Lebanon influence the work of Lebanese artists in The Netherlands? During this Artist to Artist, a collaboration between Felix Meritis and Holland Festival, three Lebanese artists discuss these questions and the importance of sharing stories that often remain in the background.
Lebanese artist Ali Chahrour is part of Holland Festival with his multidisciplinary dance performance When I Saw the Sea. In his work, he connects personal and collective stories with themes such as love and war. During this Artist to Artist he will be joined in conversation by cross-disciplinary artists Diana Al-Halabi and ghenwa abou fayad.
Line-up
Ali Chahrour
Dancer and choreographer Ali Chahrour (Beirut, 1989) has developed a unique movement language that breaks away from Western codes and models. This language reflects his cultural background and the political, social, and religious context in which he works. In an earlier series of performances, part of his “Death” trilogy, he brought funeral rituals to life, combining tradition with a sharp sense of modernity. He later began a new series centered on the theme of “love,” including Told by My Mother, which was presented at Holland Festival in 2025.
Chahrour’s work is characterized by a combination of lyrical poetry and intensely intertwined bodies. His performances have been presented at the Festival d’Avignon (2016, 2018, and 2022) as well as at numerous other festivals worldwide.
Lees meerDiana Al-Halabi
Born in Lebanon in 1990, Diana Al-Halabi is a Rotterdam–Beirut–based interdisciplinary artist working primarily with film and painting. Through an intersectional feminist lens, her practice navigates the entanglement of the personal and the political, challenging top-down structures of power — from the patriarchal gaze and institutional violence to bureaucracy, settler colonialism, migration, and visa regimes. Her recent research, “Famine and Hunger Strikes: Decolonizing the Digestive System,” explores the politicization of the digestive system as a form of bottom-up resistance.
Al-Halabi’s work spans film and painting, with her 2022 film, “The Disaster Cannot Be Contained,” screening at international festivals, including IFFR, and winning Best Short Film in the national competition at the Beirut Shorts International Film Festival. In 2023, she received the IFFR RTM PITCH Award for her short film “The Battle of Empty Stomachs,” which premiered at IFFR 2024, Raindance Film Festival (UK), and Blackstar Film Festival (USA).
Lees meerghenwa (noiré) abou fayad
ghenwa (noiré) abou fayad is a Lebanese cross-disciplinary artist, performer, and installation practitioner. Their work explores the politics of language, oral history, and repetition through sound, storytelling, and improvisation. Using an electro-acoustic setup, ghenwa plays the bouzouqi, sings, and plays the synths to weave together socio-political narratives, memory, and everyday survival, often treating performance as a living archive shaped by embodied experience.
Their practice extends into collaborative and pedagogical formats, including projects such as Hacked Orchestra which she initiated then collaborated on with Hackers & Designers (2024) – which , a collaboration with Hackers and Designers culminating in a sonic presentation at the Muziekgebouw, they facilitated the Insurgent Learning Workshop (2024), and later co-lead Voice as Legacy: Tracing the Unwritten (Sonic Acts x SALWA Foundation, 2025).
Their ongoing sound research uses a dactylo (Arabic typewriter) as an instrument, investigating the gendered history of typing as feminized labor and its sonic potential. At the moment, ghenwa is working on producing their first debut EP entitled ‘daken – sombre’.

Moor Mother w/ Aquiles Navarro & Olof Melander + James McClure & Joao Guerra
OCCII, Thursday, June 4 at 08:30 PM GMT+2
SPACEIS THE PLACE:: “Moor Mother live at OCCII” Moor Mother w/ Aquiles Navarro & Olof Melander + James McClure / Joao Guerra Duo
Surprise gig! Moor Mother plays live at OCCII (Amsterdam), backed up by her musical soulmates Aquiles Navarro and Olof Melander! Expect the unexpected: new work, improv, and a selection from Moor Mother’s rich oeuvre.
Opening: James McClure & João Guerra
Vocalist and poet Camae Ayewa aka Moor Mother describes her music as “low fi/dark rap/blk girl blues/witch rap/coffee shop riot gurl songs/black ghost songs”. Her vast discography meanders adventurously between jazz, hip hop, and noise, with records under her own name, under the moniker 700 Bliss (with DJ Haram), or in collaborations with Irreversible Entanglements, the avant-metal band SUMAC, and many more.
“Moor Mother might be the most radical Afrofuturist artist to emerge for years” – The Wire
https://moormother.bandcamp.com/
Recently, Moor Mother has moved toward a more melodic and song-oriented approach, while still blending spoken word, experimental jazz, electronics, and radical poetry. Her album Jazz Codes (2023) draws from her poetry project and pays tribute to jazz visionaries such as Woody Shaw and Mary Lou Williams, combining layered vocals, atmospheric production, and free-form improvisation in collaboration with Swedish producer Olof Melander. On her latest full length album The Great Bailout (2024), she expands this cinematic and haunting sound into a powerful meditation on colonial history, displacement, and collective memory, moving between tenderness, noise, jazz abstraction, and poetic storytelling.
Internationally renowned trumpeter Aquiles Navarro — also her bandmate in Irreversible Entanglements and multi-faceted artist in his own right— contributed to Jazz Codes as well as Circuit City and Analog Fluids Of Sonic Black Holes, and later collaborated with Melander on the album Tangles (2024).
Moor Mother – "DEATH BY LONGITUDE"This event is present by Space is the Place
Since its founding in 2017, SITP has organized improvised music concerts that encourage creativity across genres and disciplines. Over the years, it has expanded through collaborations with venues and festivals in the Netherlands and abroad, including BIMHUIS, Paradiso, and WORM. -

Jazzy Thursdays invites: Tiago Lageira Trio
Contra, Thursday, June 11 at 08:30 PM GMT+2
Tiago's music is undeniably influenced by a vibrant mix of cultural heritages, from Fado and traditional Brazilian rhythms, due to his birthplace in Portugal, to the sound of legendary Jazz pioneers, in which he immersed himself after moving to Amsterdam.
Once in Amsterdam, a young Tiago found himself without anything to do. That is when he received a gift that would change his future, a guitar. A couple hours later his fingers were bleeding from the random noises he played. One year later he started to receive guitar lessons at a local music school, which encouraged him to gradually dive into the local Jazz scene. Within a couple of months, he was already performing at the BIMhuis with the Young Talents Jazz Band.
After graduating from the conservatory and inspired by John Coltrane, Pat Martino, George Benson, João Bosco, Elis Regina and Pedro Jóia, Tiago tested himself by participating in some of the biggest music competitions in Europe today. He performed at the North Sea Jazz Festival, he was one of the finalists at the Bucharest International Jazz Competition 2020 and he won the UK Jazz Guitar Competition in 2020, among others.
Furthermore, using his Portuguese roots and playing his trusted Godin, Tiago brought a modern version of Fado to the Dutch TV competition “We Want More”, which he ended up winning as part of the duo FADOpelos2. This resulted in national fame in both The Netherlands and Portugal, where he played live on TV with the renowned Fado singer Mariza.
His current projects include FADOpelos2, CoolHaven Quintet, Trio Dos Anciões and the Amsterdam Big Band.

Red Light Jazz: afternoon concert with Avishai Darash Trio
Contra, Sunday, June 7 at 03:00 PM GMT+2
Bio (ENG below)
Pianist, componist en bandleider Avishai Darash presenteert zijn nieuwe trio tijdens het Red Light Jazz Festival in Amsterdam, met drummer Joe Blaxx en bassist Omer Govreen. Met Heart-Bop verkent het trio de taal van hardbop vanuit een hedendaags perspectief. Geworteld in de traditie van de jaren ’50 en ’60 ligt de focus op groove, helderheid en samenspel, met een programma van eigen composities en arrangementen die zowel respect tonen voor het idioom als een eigentijdse benadering weerspiegelen. Het trio benadert swing als een flexibel concept dat voortdurend in ontwikkeling is, gevormd door hun individuele stemmen en collectieve interactie. In plaats van een historisch geluid te reproduceren, plaatsen Darash en zijn trio deze traditie in een nieuw kader—met behoud van directheid en energie, maar open naar een bredere, actuele muzikale context. Het resultaat is een helder en toegankelijk programma dat traditie en moderniteit verbindt, en jazz benadert als een gedeelde en voortdurend evoluerende taal.
Bio:
Pianist, composer, and bandleader Avishai Darash presents his new trio at the Red Light Jazz Festival in Amsterdam, featuring drummer Joe Blaxx and bassist Omer Govreen. With Heart-Bop, the trio explores the language of hard bop from a contemporary perspective. Rooted in the tradition of the 1950s and ’60s, the focus is on groove, clarity, and interplay, with a program of original compositions and arrangements that both respect the idiom and reflect a modern approach. The trio treats swing as a flexible concept that is constantly evolving, shaped by their individual voices and collective interaction. Rather than reproducing a historical sound, Darash and his trio place this tradition in a new framework—retaining its directness and energy while remaining open to a broader, contemporary musical context. The result is a clear and accessible program that bridges tradition and modernity, approaching jazz as a shared and continuously evolving language.https://offbeat.amsterdam/event/red-light-jazz-afternoon-concert-with-avishai-darash-trio

Een uitgebluste filmmaker volgt zijn rock-’n-roll vriend wanneer die vader wordt, om zo te proberen uit zijn eigen babyblues te komen.Muzikant Thijs belichaamt alles wat filmmaker Jeroen, inmiddels een uitgebluste vader, lijkt te zijn verloren: vrijheid, lef en onvoorwaardelijke liefde. Wanneer Thijs aankondigt dat hij vader wordt, besluit Jeroen hem te volgen tijdens zijn voorbereiding op het vaderschap. Terwijl hij Thijs observeert, begint hij ook zijn eigen leven opnieuw te bekijken en grip te krijgen op wat vaderschap inhoudt. Een ironische coming-of-age documentaire voor mannen die allang volwassen hadden moeten zijn. Een film over falen en de stille paniek van mannen die niet weten wat ze moeten zijn. Over vaders die aan de zijlijn staan, en de schaamte van tekortschieten. Maar ook: over onverwachte schoonheid, liefde zonder handleiding en de mogelijkheid dat het toch goed komt – al is het maar een beetje.
Met in dit programma Jeroen Bronckers Regisseur Thijs Heij Muzikant, tekstschrijver, producerOver de sprekers
Jeroen Bronckers is een Utrechtse cineast, fotograaf en kunstenaar. Hij studeerde film aan de Kunstacademie St. Joost in Breda, waar hij in 2015 afstudeerde met de documentaire The Creator Has a Masterplan. Sindsdien werkte hij als regisseur, cinematograaf en editor aan uiteenlopende fictie-en documentaire producties, en exposeerde hij zijn eigen werk op verschillende festivals en locaties. Voor Jeroen is de camera een verlengstuk van zichzelf: een manier om te schrijven, te ademen en grip te krijgen op de wereld. Toen hij vader werd en de camera noodgedwongen een stap terug deed, belandde hij op een existentieel kruispunt. Dat besef vormde de voedingsbodem voor Papa Terrible. Zijn beeldtaal ontwikkelde Jeroen in de Utrechtse muziekscene, waar hij als fotograaf intensief samenwerkte met muzikanten. De camera werd zijn paspoort; wat hij aan muzikaal talent miste, vond hij in beeld. Zo ontmoette hij Thijs Heij, die uitgroeide tot zijn fotografisch schetsboek en artistieke tegenhanger. Tien jaar van gedeelde tochten vol drank, drugs en rock-’n-roll leidden uiteindelijk tot de intiemste documentatie van allemaal: de film waarin Thijs vader wordt.
Thijs Heij is een Utrechtse muzikant, tekstschrijver en producer. Hij is zanger van de band TAXIKAT, componist van filmmuziek en speelt in verscheidene tribute bands, waaronder de in binnen- en buitenland populaire Joy Division Undercover. Onder zijn eigen naam brengt hij sinds 2009 zijn eigen Nederlandstalige muziek uit, waaronder de van TV bekende ‘Als iets in de knoop zit, maak er dan niet nog een knoop in’ en de underground hit ‘Zand in je kutje’. Geliefd door sommigen, gehaat door een aantal. Thijs groeide op in een gezin met twee vaders en twee moeders. Zijn vaders zijn er niet meer; dus Thijs kan bij hen geen advies meer vragen. Maar zonder of met de bagage van zijn verleden: Thijs voelt de noodzaak zijn leven zelf vorm te geven, eigenwijs, zonder vangnet, op zijn eigen manier.
‘Ik heb geen geld, geen goede baan, geen succesvolle carrière en geen auto van de zaak. Ik heb geen spaarrekening, geen groot huis, geen grote schouders. Ik mis twee kiezen. Rook en drink veel. Ik kan eigenlijk niets van wat je in het plaatje van een standaard man kan vinden.’
