about
The Oriental Music Ensemble (OME) is one of the most famous and prestigious contemporary Palestinian music groups. Established in 1997 by the Edward Said National Conservatory of Music in Palestine (formerly NCM), the group has performed extensively in Palestine and also gave very successful concerts in England, Belgium, Sweden, Greece and lately in Switzerland. The instrumental ensemble performs the authentic classical music of the Middle-East mostly Arabic music with influences from the larger orient including Turkey, and Kurdistan. Some of the music played by the OME was composed in the late nineteenth century or the beginning of the twentieth century, but much of it is also contemporary composed by famous musicians of the final decades of last century.
