another Mahmovies post, I think I should have a section for this event if I keep taking photos every Monday at the Jamjar.. I got in early to shoot the rehearsals and setup.. not to stick with one view angle from a beanbag spot.. and it was worth it:
Henriika's cello.. having a break between rehearsals..
first shot as I entered Jamjar a couple of hours before the show.. must have been time consuming to sort all these beanbags..
cable check..
all turning on the same page..
a quick stretch..
and here we go..
a marimba view..
Henriika
Mahmoud and Muriel Aboul Rouss, camerawoman at Mahmovies and on Teta, Alf Marra, Mahmoud's upcoming feature documentary film..
sound check and setup in the dark..
pizza time! musicians grabbing some pizza before opening doors..
this goes out to the awesome California Pizza Kitchen.. sa7tain Mahmoud !
people were waiting outside during last minute rehearsals..
doors opened.. straight to the pizza corner !
almost every face is in focus, check out the high res version here .. Mah' kind of people..
a scene from the trailer of Mahmoud's upcoming feature documentary film Teta, Alf Marra (Grandmother, a Thousand Times).. quite an impressive combination of video performance, spoken words and live music it was..
Henriika playing the cello live along with the rest during the silent trailer of Teta, Alf Marra
after the video performance and before the screening of Let's Get Lost, a documentary about the legendary Chet Baker's downfall..
and next was some beautiful musical performance by Nabil Amarshi, Noura Sadaka and friends..
Silhouette Noura
Nathan and Nabil..
the last musical piece featured very beautiful marimba tunes played by Chris (I guess this was his name)..
these people played beautiful live music that evening..
