Hello Guys,


Pope Shenouda III is the pope of Alexanderia and he is also the pope number 117 after Saint Mark.




Pope Shenouda III is well known for his unique talent in writing as well as poems writing.

I was honored perform in his presence while he visted Australia in 2000.

Back then I took part in a trio of Andy Hanna on the Piano , Medhat Bolous on the Cello and myself on the oud.

This Coptic Trio played the music of three of the most famous poems for his holiness.

here is one that I would like to share with you all.

Enjoy

G'day Emad,
This very nice. Is it an ensamble you play with?
I have been always a big admirer of Pope Shenoudah. I have never heard any of his poetry. His intillgence, cuture, and charisma are very impressive.
Thanks for sharing,
Hatem

Thanks
