Described as “revolutionary” by Songlines for their debut albumThe Wax Cylinder Recordings, Oxford Maqam are renowned innovators of classical Arabic music, having sold out venues both at home and internationally. This concert offers a rare opportunity to experience live renditions of music steeped in Arab heritage in a spectacularly ornate setting.
