A Morning Between the Nile and New Sound

On September 20, 2026, the RPM Museum Hildesheim combines chamber music, Egyptian contemporary sounds, and museum experience for a matinee full of excitement. The Chamber Orchestra Hannover concludes its series here with a program that puts traditional and new music from Egypt into a lively dialogue. Following this, a short tour through the new permanent exhibition on Egypt places the musical impressions into historical context. ([rpmuseum.de](https://rpmuseum.de/konzert-matineen-im-rpm/))

A Soundscape Full of Contrasts

At the center is a musical encounter that focuses on fine colors, rhythmic precision, and culturally aware orchestration. Participants include Adham Badawy, drummer, composer, flutist, and singer trained at the Conservatory in Cairo, as well as Momen Mustafa, Ney player, composer, and university lecturer with a focus on Arabic Maqam music. A new work by Adham Badawy for Ney, Darabuka, and European instruments of the Chamber Orchestra Hannover is also planned. ([rpmuseum.de](https://rpmuseum.de/konzert-matineen-im-rpm/))

Between Tradition and Present

The matinee not only relies on sonic diversity but also on musical storytelling. Works from Central Europe that also deal with the oriental realm are interspersed. This creates a program that builds bridges without losing its individuality. Exactly therein lies the allure of this concert experience: the live atmosphere in the museum meets a cast that makes cultural connections audible.

The Museum Moment After the Applause

The second part of the morning is particularly powerful: the thematic short tour through the new permanent exhibition on Egypt. Here, the focus is on the significance of music in the age of the pharaohs and the question of what can be said about musical practice in antiquity. The concert thus gains an additional depth that unfolds between acoustics, history, and curatorial knowledge. ([rpmuseum.de](https://rpmuseum.de/konzert-matineen-im-rpm/))
