Future Folklore with Karim Nagi
“A physical manifestation of beauty & joy” – Chicago Tribune
KARIM NAGI creates a future folklore. He weaves Arab tradition with a borderless exploration. His traditional Arabic music and dance emanate brightly, reworking into an original expression of diaspora folklore. A multi-instrumentalist, recording artist of 18 albums, movement artist and TEDx speaker, NAGI’s performances are dynamic and rich. He creates partnerships with his audiences, verbally guiding them, transporting each member on a provocative cultural excursion.
Additionally, NAGI has an educational school assembly performance Arabiqa which has toured the USA and received two Doris Duke Building Bridges grants. He is a former Board member of Chamber Music America, and a former adjunct faculty at New England Conservatory. He currently performs his solo play Detour Guide, and tours with Arabiqa, plus the Chicago-based group The Arab Blues.
