In 2019, a special concert was held at the Abdulaziz Theatre to celebrate 120 years of friendship between the British Council and the National Council for Culture, Arts and Letters (NCCAL).
The event featured a selection of past compositions by Kuwaiti composer Nawaf Gheraibah, performed with a group of talented local musicians who showcased Kuwait’s evolving musical landscape.
The concert also welcomed the acclaimed UK band 9Bach, creating a distinctive cross-cultural collaboration that blended Kuwaiti and British musical influences on one stage.
It was an evening that honored cultural exchange, artistic unity, and the long-standing relationship between Kuwait and the United Kingdom.
