On a cloudy automn morning of November 2019, I went to an Arab laud concert inside an ancient bath at the center of Granada. This music trip was amazing and involved us singing in Arab to the interpreter, while he sang a beautiful song and played his laud at the end. Nobody spoke Arabic there, he just repeated a few syllables and asked us to do the same.
