Hearts were touched and tears were shed on Friday night in a much-anticipated concert dedicated to one of Bahrain’s most beloved musical icons, Ali Bahar, with a second show to take place tonight.
The Bahrain National Theatre’s 1,001-seat hall was packed, as people gathered to hear high-art, classical renditions of popular songs as a tribute to the late Mr Bahar, nicknamed ‘the Bob Marley of Bahrain’ .
