3. Au revoir (Goodbye)
For this number I used a traditional Tunesian goodbye-song, called ‘Au Revoir’ in combination with a song from Lybia, called ‘Ya Lalani’. The music from Arabic countries is in my ears so very flexible, rythmic and melodious at the same time that it stays upright and recognizable and so to speak asks for it to be arranged.
