Composing Belonging

Composing Belonging returns to Wrexfest this August following a hugely successful debut earlier this year Originally created as a one-night-only performance, the project returns after its first sharing received such a positive response from audiences that the artists wanted to continue the collaboration and develop the work further. This year’s performance brings together SERA, Ayoub Boukhalfa, Yasmine Latkowski and the full Panedeni ensemble for an afternoon of original music, collaboration and conversation. At the heart of the project is a shared exploration of identity, language, heritage and belonging. Drawing on Welsh and Arabic musical traditions, the artists combine original songwriting with diverse musical influences to create new work rooted in their own lived experiences. Joining the project this year is Panedeni, whose debut EP Atamanaa was released earlier this summer. Led by Yasmine Latkowski, the North Wales-based ensemble blends Arabic and Welsh musical traditions through original compositions and reimagined folk styles, featuring oud, Welsh border pipes, violin, guitar, clarinet, flutes, Egyptian percussion, bass and vocals performed across four languages. Alongside music from Panedeni’s new EP, audiences will hear original collaborative works developed through the Composing Belonging project, individual performances from the featured artists, and hear the stories behind the music. More than a concert, Composing Belonging offers an opportunity to experience...
