Coconino Center for the Arts

$20 general admission/$10 for students

Founded in 2023, the NAU Middle East Ensemble is a group of twenty Northern Arizona University students, faculty, and Flagstaff community members, directed by Dr. Lillie Gordon. The ensemble performs music from throughout the Middle East. Join us for an evening of lively classic and popular songs and instrumental pieces from Egypt, Turkey, Lebanon, Iran and more. For this performance, our repertoire focuses on the concepts of love and wind, two words with a close relationship in Arabic poetry and song lyrics. We are pleased to be joined by world-class guest dancer Carrie Konyha for an extended set.
