ALULA: Under the patronage of Saudi Minister of Culture Prince Badr bin Abdullah bin Farhan, the Saudi Music Commission is organizing the “Masterpieces of the Saudi Orchestra” on Jan. 22-23 in AlUla governorate.

The event comes as a continuation of the journey of the Saudi National Orchestra and Choir to showcase the Kingdom’s music heritage in leading local and international theaters. AlUla, an important stop and key destination on the global tourism map, will host the concerts at the world-class architectural landmark Maraya Concert Hall.

Hosting the event in AlUla reflects the creative journey of the Saudi National Orchestra and Choir, following a series of successes in several capitals and cities. The orchestra has presented Saudi melodies to the most prestigious global stages, amid widespread acclaim and remarkable audience engagement; it will meet audiences today in one of the Kingdom’s most culturally significant regions.

AlUla is one of the world’s most prominent cultural and tourism destinations, with a history deeply rooted in human civilization and a cultural heritage spanning centuries. This legacy has positioned AlUla as a major destination for international tourists and a cultural hub that reflects the Kingdom’s cultural identity and its advanced standing on the global cultural tourism map.

The selection of Maraya Concert Hall to host the musical experience holds special significance, as the venue stands as a unique example of contemporary architecture and a stage that brings together art and nature, offering musical performances an exceptional visual dimension.
