The Guest List
Thursday October 14th, 2021 with Joe Reilly
An interview with Radwan Ghazi Moumneh about the new Jerusalem in My Heart album Qalaq
A fantastic conversation today with Montreal-based artist Radwan Ghazi Moumneh about the latest recording from Jerusalem In My Heart. He talks to us about how the massive explosion that destroyed much of downtown Beirut on August 4, 2020 was the inspiration (if we can use that word in this kind of context) for the new recording. He talks to us about how the visuals created by his artistic partner Erin Weisgerber are integral to Jerusalem In My Heart and how their live performances are challenging and exhilarating. (They will be performing in Ottawa on December 4th at Arts Court.) He also talks to us about the amazing contributions made by artists from all over the planet on this new recording.
Note that this On Demand version of the program contains more interview and more music than the FM broadcast, as we had to edit the program to fit the 60 minute time slot for the Guest List.
