SUMMARY:The Listening Majlis by Amin Fari
DESCRIPTION:Bassam Freiha Art Foundation invites you to the second edition of The Listening Majlis\, a unique sound experience led by multidisciplinary artist Amin Fari. \n  \nDrawing inspiration from the intimacy of the Japanese kissaten\, where listening to music becomes a quiet\, intentional act\, and the communal spirit of the Arab majlis\, a space rooted in gathering and exchange\, The Listening Majlis creates a setting where sound\, presence\, and dialogue come together. This experience invites audiences to slow down and engage with music not as background noise\, but as a shared moment of attention and reflection. \n  \nThrough a carefully curated selection of vinyl records\, Amin Fari shapes an immersive sonic environment where each track is chosen with intention\, allowing the audience to move through different moods\, textures\, and narratives. The analogue quality of vinyl adds depth and warmth\, reinforcing the tactile and sensory nature of the experience. \n  \nSet within the Foundation\, the space becomes a contemporary majlis\, one that encourages both quiet listening and organic conversation. Guests are invited to sit\, listen\, reflect\, and connect\, whether with the music\, the artworks on view\, or with one another. Rather than a traditional performance\, The Listening Majlis unfolds as a collective experience\, where time slows and attention is gently redirected towards sound. \n  \nThis second edition continues to explore the relationship between music\, space\, and community\, offering a moment of pause within the rhythm of daily life and an opportunity to rediscover the simple yet powerful act of listening.
