Arab Women SIngers

I missed the Islamic Art Museum's (http://www.islamicart.co.il/en/ ) lecture series on Arab women, but I made it to the concert which served as the final lecture. Two women who were a little late found chairs they could put in the wide aisle ahead of me and proceeded to chatter while the four-musician ensemble from the Nazareth Orchestra played. When the singer Lubna Salame ( http://worldmusiccentral.org/artists/artist_page.php?id=1677Listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ijJ1jEOHsg )entered, they quieted, and it became clear that, like much of the audience, they knew the songs. Ms Salame encouraged them to sing the choruses. Listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ijJ1jEOHsg with Ms. Lubna entering at about 2:48.
