The head of the Higher Conservatory of Music, the musician Bassam Saba, passed away due to the repercussions of his infection with the Coronavirus. And Saba was battling complications from the virus after he was admitted last month to the American University Hospital in Beirut, and was transferred to the hospital’s coronavirus treatment building.

The researcher wrote Grace adib:

Goodbye Bassam. You endured the disease a lot and we pray more for you, without success.

Behold, your pains and the rolling collapse of your tired body are gone, and your pains have turned to pain in our hearts and in the hearts of your lovers.
My heart goes out to Diala and Mariana. With Mary, Samih, Nugla and Elia, and with us are your family, your cousins, your aunts, your brothers, from our shared childhood.

I joined Andrea, Mario, Gloria and Nicola, and Anton, Delia, Helen, Eugenie, Sarkis, Michel, Umm Salah, Abu Salah, and your uncle, Dr. Ali, and other lovers who preceded you. Imagine them circling around you, playing the flute and all the musical instruments, your last symphony, and playing for Anton your melody that he did not hear from you on the floor.

I transmit our peace … and rest in peace you too, I left this land that is mourning the wounds of the harshness of this time.

The poet wrote Lilian Yammine:
The director of the National Conservatory passed away today, the Lebanese musician Bassam Saba, who one day returns from New York with jazz melodies on the Eastern loom, as if he were conducting a dialogue between Eastern and Western instruments. Her interpretation deviates slightly from heritage, but has always remained on the bridge that connects her to the East, even in Western-style pieces, connecting different artistic forms and expressions.

Today, that infiltrator is deported to sudden melodic and musical areas, combining modern expression with scientific writing, as in the songs “On the Gates of the East”, “Nirvana” and “To Abi”.
Anyone who reads the music of Bassam Saba realizes that it is a hall of heritage and traditional Arabic music as much as it tried to form a new identity for oriental music.

Theater books Beat my roast:
He was the youngest of us when we were stranded in Paris in the mid-seventies of the last century, so we founded the Mayadeen company with Marcel Khalifa to live off what we have mastered in the works, and Bassam was a master at playing the flute and the violin, and in each concert he had a special paragraph. He was the youngest and his paragraph is still today and today he was interpreting The latter is gone … Bassam Saba, director of the National Conservatory of Lebanon, how I met him and how I would like to keep his photo.
