# Event Details

- **Event Name**: ARABIKA Album Release Performance with EL BALCÓN and ANDRÉ SAULNIER
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 06:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Join Moncton's acclaimed world music ensemble Arabika for a special evening celebrating the release of their debut album of original music. Known for their captivating presentations of traditional Arabic music from across the diaspora, Arabika ventures into new territory with a collection of original compositions that weave together the classical sounds of Andalusia, the Mashriq, the Levant, and the Maghreb with musical influences from Turkey, Persia, India, China, West Africa, and Latin America. Through ten original songs and inspired reimaginings of beloved classics, Arabika invites audiences on a musical and poetic journey through the depths of the soul.

Opening the evening is El Balcón , a vibrant Montreal-based ensemble that celebrates its cultural roots by blending the rich traditions of Son Jarocho from Veracruz, Mexico, with contemporary folk music. Featuring soaring vocal harmonies, oud, violin, and darbuka, their infectious rhythms and cross-cultural sound create an irresistible invitation to dance.

The concert will also feature a special solo performance by André Saulnier/The Hiking Songwriter, a Canadian singer-songwriter renowned for his powerful voice, introspective songwriting, and masterful guitar work influenced by traditional flamenco. His heartfelt songs and virtuosic musicianship provide a compelling bridge between folk traditions and contemporary storytelling.

Together, these three artists create an unforgettable evening of music that spans continents, traditions, and generations; a celebration of cultural exchange, artistic collaboration, and the universal language of song
