SUMMARY:Global Fridays: Safaafir (Iraqi maqam)
DESCRIPTION:MICHIGAN\n\nThis traditional Iraqi trio performs maqam music. I
 ts name refers to the ancient art of coppersmithing\, which has been liken
 ed to Iraq’s branch of maqam because of the metallic sound of the santur
  - the Middle Eastern dulcimer that’s struck with small hammers. Sibling
 s Amir and Dena El Saffar provide the majority of melodic material on sant
 ur and violin respectively\, with Dena’s husband Tim Moore delivering pe
 rcussive accompaniment. All three members sing as well\, preserving this o
 lder music tradition that has been largely eclipsed by styles of the 20th 
 century.\n\nMembers of Safaafir will offer a workshop at 5:30 p.m.\, prior
  to the concert. Both experienced musicians and music enthusiasts are welc
 omed.\n\nPresented in conjunction with the AANM exhibition From Detroit to
  Baghdad: Al Mutanabbi Street Starts Here\, in the Lower Level Gallery Mar
 ch 5-July 12\, 2015.\n\nConcert only: $10 AANM Members $15 general admissi
