Last week I read about an important news of doing an Emirates Orchestra in the Etihad newspaper. This idea of doing an Emirates orchestra is created by the Abu Dhabi Art and Culture Foundation. They started this idea from January 26 when The Arabian Oud group made an concert in Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi. The leader of this group is the Iraqi Artist Naseer Shamma which works with the leader of The Abu Dhabi Art and Culture Mohammed Khalaf on doing an Emirates Orchestra. This idea is about making a learning center of Arabian music and instruments for all ages in Abu Dhabi. This center has many sections of learning. For example, sections for , Arabian instruments, musical theories and drama. They started this center in February 3 by accepting fifty students and they made a concert of their first music which created by the Iraqi Artist Naseer Shamma called The New year. The whole reason of doing this idea is because the Arabian culture and art need more supports especially in Gulf. The Iraq artist Naseer Shamma said that he is working to make his group the main supporter of the Arabian music in many Arabian countries. I chose this news because it is a new idea in the gulf and it is a good start of helping our culture to be always in the top. Also, in gulf countries do not care about music and they just listen without knowing it. The music is not for dancing, fun, and wasting time but it is the way of how people can understand each other with a nice feelings of love.

Excellent work Anood. It's good to see your culture and heritage being passed on to the young. Sometimes it seems that they are empty of these things - in the UK as well as here...
