Main Info

Symphony orchestra, Sufi poetry and classical dance is the winning combination powering the genre-defying Orchestral Qawwali Project.

Returning to Symphony Hall following a sell-out performance two years ago, the project - which is written & directed by critically acclaimed composer Rushil Ranjan - brings together rich orchestral arrangements (here performed by the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra) with the soaring and effortless vocals of Abi Sampa.

Prize-winning conductor Melvin Tay is the man at the helm. The ever-brilliant CBSO Chorus lend their voices to proceedings.
