BBC Radio 3 - Late Junction, Sam Shalabi and Angel Bat Dawid in session

Verity Sharp presents an exclusive session between two artists who have never met before.

Verity Sharp presents a session between oud player Sam Shalabi and ‘spiritual jazz soothsayer’ Angel Bat Dawid. Plus new Oliver Coates and the sound of water on metal and skin.

Verity Sharp presents this month's Late Junction collaboration session, where we pair together two artists who have never met before and invite them to collaborate remotely. Sam Shalabi is an Egyptian-Canadian oud player and improviser living between Montreal and Cairo. His work incorporates traditional Arabic forms alongside noise, free improvisation and jazz and spans several different groups: Shalabi Effect; Land of Kush and The Dwarves of East Agouza to name a few. Here he brings his open-eared approach to a collaboration with fellow traveller and ‘spiritual jazz soothsayer’ Angel Bat Dawid.

Angel Bat Dawid is a shape shifting multi-instrumentalist and composer. She is primarily a clarinettist but also works with vocals, piano and percussion and improvises with an assortment of different musicians across the Chicago jazz scene. Her work is rooted in a spiritual vision of what music can achieve.

Plus binaural recordings of water on polyester, metal and skin courtesy of Barcelona-based sound artist Daphne X, sparkly disjointed pop from Finland’s Jonna Karanka aka Kuupuu, and ‘pastoral metal’ in the form of the latest offering from cellist Oliver Coates.

Produced by Katie Callin.
