Bala Nota A Documentary on the Musical Heritage of Lebanon.
37 minutes/Arabic with English subtitles
This film sheds light on some singers and musicians who have been conserving their musical heritage. These individuals showcase various musical forms, tunes and instruments labeling them «Lebanese heritage». Raising the value of this work is the scarcity of young people preserving this musical heritage. This adds an archival value to the artistic one, in the sense of archiving a historical musical era that is continuously undergoing modifications to match the requirements of the contemporary Lebanese societies.
