Sabreen Group / مــجــمــوعــة صــابــريــنSabreen Group – the Palestinian Music Group was formed in 1980 with a vision focused on the ‎development of the Palestinian modern song, reflecting the humanitarian and cultural reality in ‎general, and the suffering endured from the political situation in particular. Thus, their recordings ‎remain imbued with a sense of hope, yet reflect the frustrations and longing associated with ‎Palestine. Its music is constantly taking new directions and forms and as such, embodies the spirit ‎of creativity and innovation. Sabreen music is a language and a world of its own and is derived ‎from local sources (folklore, traditional music) as well as international sources (jazz, rock, etc.). ‎This unique blend of music and cultures continue to distinguish Sabreen's music thus presenting it ‎as a recognized Palestinian and International voice.‎
Rather than remain static, producing new albums but churning out the same sound year after year, ‎its sound has evolved and matured to mix soulful lyrics with a fusion of musical influences, ‎including classical oriental Arabic, and musical traditions from the east and the west. Its music is ‎constantly taking new directions and forms and as such, embodies the spirit of creativity and ‎innovation.‎
As they cannot be placed in the standard, tidy categories of most commercial productions in the ‎music industry, Sabreen's recordings are laborious to promote, difficult to market, thus requiring ‎sustaining financially. It is a blend of stubbornness and flexibility that has sustained Sabreen ‎through the passing years, as it has had to compensate for the lacking infrastructure necessary for its ‎growth.‎
Sabreen music is a language and a world unto its own. And is derived from the local sources ‎‎(folklore, traditional music) as well as from international sources (jazz, rock, etc.). This unique ‎blend of music and cultures continue to distinguish Sabreen's music thus presenting it as a ‎recognized Palestinian and International voice.‎
