Egypt’s El-Hadra troupe will perform at Cairo Opera House on
July 18. El-Hadra troupe performed at El Sawy Cultural Wheel on September 26,
2020.
It is worth mentioning that El-Hadra Troupe for Sufi songs
was founded in 2015 to preserve the spiritual heritage of recitals and to
present the Egyptian Sufi heritage. It includes a group of vocalists of
different styles that love Sufism.
Their program includes a collection of poems for the poets:
Mohiuddin Ben Arabi, Al-Hallaj, Ibn Al-Fardar and others, Nour Nageh, an artist
and Sufi devotee, is the founder of El Hadra troupe. With oud, drums and
powerful voices, El Hadra had started out its performances of Zikr and Hadra at
El-Raba Cultural Center in Islamic Cairo, reflecting the whole spiritual
experience from mosque to theater.
El Hadra’s members belong to various Sufi orders, not one
specific order. It derived its name from the word “Hodor”, which means
"presence". It refers to Sufi chanters who recite Quran and
praise Allah and the Prophet Mohammed.
The troupe has performed many concerts in various culture
places in Egypt and it succeeded in forming a broad public turnout.
