Music In-Takht is committed to serving the San Francisco Bay Area community with the highest professional standard of musical performance. The ensemble members are devoted musicians who value the mission of this ensemble and with humility\, hard work\, and confidence in their abilities they take the responsibility of being among the “Keepers” of Egyptian musical culture within the San Francisco Bay Area. \nBasma Edrees is the founder of Music In-Takht. She is a violinist\, performer\, and educator based in the SF Bay Area. Passionate about introducing the world to the rich music of her native country\, Egypt\, Edrees has given Arabic music workshops at UC Berkeley and Stanford. She also taught Arabic music and European counterpoint at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music and is currently on the violin faculty of Santa Clara University’s Department of Music. A graduate of the Mannes School of Music and The Juilliard School in New York\, Edrees also enjoys a career playing and teaching European classical music. \nMoe is a self-taught oudist who started his musical journey in 2006 as a guitarist in Cairo’s progressive rock scene. After releasing an album as part of the duo “Auburn Mary”\, Moe developed a strong interest in modal improvisation and jazz fusion. He found his way to Arabic music through early 20th-century influences of Abdel Wahab and El-Qasabgi\, as well as the improvisation-oriented folk traditions around the Mediterranean. Moe pursued his studies in Maqam theory at the Canadian Arabic Conservatory of Music and is committed to serving local music. \nMohamed Abdelradi is one of Egypt’s prominent percussionists. He performed and continues to perform with some of the most renowned singers of Egypt and the Arab world\, most notably Hamid El Shaeri\, as well as Mohamed Mounir; who pioneered the spread of Nubian music and its influence into the musical language of Egypt as a whole\, making it an intrinsic part of all Egyptians’ musical identity. \nhttps://basmaedreesviolin.com/new-page-2

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: A Celebration of Moroccan Flavors in France - In Person
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$165.00\nMember Price:\n$155.00 \nA hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 12 students. Review our registration and cancellation policies here. \nFor 44 years\, Morocco was a protectorate of France. This link between the two countries created a pathway for Moroccan cuisine to be introduced and popularized in France. The word tagine refers to the cookware used to make the stew\, which is made of either ceramic or\, more traditionally\, unglazed clay. The varieties of tagines are endless!  \nIn this class\, we will celebrate the traditional flavors of a fish tagine scented with preserved lemons and olives. The fish is coated in a traditional Chermoula\, a flavorful-herb spice paste of cilantro\, garlic\, cumin\, paprika\, cayenne\, lemon juice & extra virgin olive oil\, and then cooked on a bed of vegetables. Learn the trick to super smooth and creamy hummus and top everything off with homemade harissa\, the spicy smoky red chili paste that is great on everything! We will also learn how to make preserved lemons; students will take home a jar they made in class to use at home.  \nJoin Zoe McLaughlin for an evening in the kitchen\, where she will guide you through her recipes\, inspired by her time cooking and living in Paris. \nMENU \nSmooth & Creamy Hummus with Za’atar & Flatbread \nFish Tagine with Preserved Lemons & Olives \nCouscous with Toasted Slivered Almonds & Raisins \nHomemade Harissa \nPreserved Lemons to Take Home  \nThis menu contains the following common allergens: Fish\, Tree Nuts\, Wheat. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions that concern your ability to cook along\, please e-mail info@18reasons.org before purchasing a ticket. \nLet’s Cook Together!  \nZoé McLaughlin was born in Paris and raised in San Francisco. She graduated from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris and worked in restaurants in France while she wrote and published her first cookbook – a collection of family recipes influenced by her multicultural upbringing. She now lives in San Francisco\, where she works in the non-profit culinary world and hosts online cooking demonstrations. She has a passion for bringing together the diverse flavors and culinary traditions of the Bay Area with the time tested techniques of classical French cooking.

SUMMARY:The Chapel: Karina Rykman\, Guerilla Toss
DESCRIPTION:$20 Advance $25 Day Of Show \nWebsite | Spotify | YouTube | Instagram \nFor information on our current COVID policy\, please click here.  \nJoyride Tour 2023” celebrates the upcoming arrival of Karina Rykman’s hugely anticipated debut album\, JOYRIDE\, arriving via AWAL on Friday\, August 18. The album was first heralded earlier this month with the premiere of the single and title track\, “Joyride.” Equal parts thick bass\, ethereal synths\, disco-funk guitar\, and silky\, inviting vocals\, the track – which features signature lead guitar from JOYRIDE co-producer Trey Anastasio – expertly captures Rykman’s jubilant brand of sonic exploration\, bridging an array of genres to arrive at her own compelling and original take on psychedelic indie rock. \nGuerilla Toss \nDig deep enough inside yourself—start treating your body as your sanctuary rather than your enemy—and eventually you’ll find yourself blooming right back out into the sun. That’s the transformation Guerilla Toss trace on their newest album “Famously Alive\,” their effervescent Sub Pop debut. After a decade sprinkling glitter into grit\, building a reputation as one of the most ferociously creative art-rock groups working\, the upstate New York band have eased fully into their light. This is Guerilla Toss at their most luminescent—awake\, alive\, and extending an open invitation to anyone who wants to soak it all up beside them. Singer and lyricist Kassie Carlson\, multi-instrumentalist Peter Negroponte and guitarist Arian Shafiee wrote “Famously Alive” at home in the Catskills during the pervading quiet of the pandemic year. The uncertainty of COVID-19 lockdowns and the total disruption of routine forced Carlson to negotiate with herself in new and challenging ways. “You have to be with yourself all the time during the pandemic\,” she says. “I had to figure out a way to manage my anxiety. The pandemic was hard\, but it helped me get comfortable inside my own body. My peace of mind came out of being thrust into the deepest shit. This album is all about being happy\, being alive\, and strength. It’s meant to inspire people.” \nThe album’s title derives from a poem written by a close friend of the band\, Jonny Tatelman\, who supported Carlson through the early stages of her recovery from opiate addiction. The poem comprises the entirety of the lyrics to the title track\, an exuberant ode to loving your own survival and charting a course into unconditional self-acceptance. “The song ‘Famously Alive’ is about living with purpose and excitement whether you’re famous or not\, accepting your strangeness and thriving even if your successes look different than other people’s\,” notes Carlson. “To me\, ‘Famously Alive’ means flipping the notion of dying famously to living famously\,” Negroponte adds. “I also like to think of it as a way to describe living through something traumatic and coming out of it a stronger\, wiser person.” \nSongs like the expansive\, gleaming “Live Exponential” similarly invite the listener to lean into the light. “It’s about loving yourself and finding a way to be comfortable in your own body—to live life to the fullest and beyond\,” says Carlson. Throughout the record\, Guerilla Toss meet themselves with curiosity\, generosity\, and acceptance even for the harder parts of being alive. Opener “Cannibal Capital\,” a song about the exhaustion and dread of social anxiety\, came together in a flurry toward the end of the album’s sessions. A taut bass groove erupts into competing squalls of guitar and synth that support one of the most immediate and arresting vocal hooks of Guerilla Toss’s catalog to date. \nTogether with guitarist Arian Shafiee\, Carlson and Negroponte cultivated a sound that spliced together psychedelic texturing and Krautrock syncopation with the gloss and glow of contemporary pop music. “I like to combine as many musical influences as possible\,” says Negroponte. “We thought the sleekness of current radio pop would make our dense wall-of-sound aesthetic both more bizarre and more accessible and fun at the same time.” Carlson was similarly inspired by a wide range of artists from around the world after diving deep into obscure 7-inches for her weekly show on Radio Catskill\, Rare Pear Radio. \nWhile writing the album\, Carlson took voice lessons online for the first time. Though she has been singing since she was four years old\, at first with a vocal harmony group in her family’s church\, she hadn’t formally trained her voice since joining Guerilla Toss. The lessons allowed her to deepen and broaden her range\, helping her feel more embodied and connected to her voice. Underneath ripples of Auto-Tune\, playful\, searching vocal melodies suspend lyrics about reaching for yourself and holding fast in your own love. \n“Famously Alive” finds Guerilla Toss coming into the fullness of their power\, celebrating their prismatic idiosyncrasies from a place of optimism and abundance. “It felt like I didn’t need to force myself into this dark place to create anymore\,” Carlson says. “For the first time in my life\, I feel like I’m finally comfortable inside my body.”

SUMMARY:18 Reasons: Halloween Boo-don: Handmade Udon - In Person
DESCRIPTION:Price:\n$155.00\nMember Price:\n$145.00 \nA hands-on in-person cooking class culminating in a dinner served with wine and beer. This class is limited to 12 students. See our registration policies here and our rules for in-person events here. \nHalloween is around the corner and there’s no better way to prepare for the holiday than with some spooky handmade udon noodles\, BOO-don…if you will. The slippery\, silky\, chewy texture of each noodle is undeniably addicting\, and it’s almost scary how simple it is to hand make it yourself! Elise will guide you through mixing and shaping the dough\, and\, most importantly\, the foot stomping technique to knead the dough into the perfect texture. Don’t forget a clean pair of socks! \nEven though the noodles need to rest\, we’ll be busy shaping and frying Curry Korokke into the tastiest ghouls of the season\, and whisking up a black sesame dressing to adorn our homestyle salad. We’ll also unveil the secrets to creating a delicate yet umami filled Mentsuyu broth to engulf our Nabeyaki ingredients. All these will come together in a tantalizing pot to simmer\, and we’ll slurp the night away as if we were sitting around a small table in the middle of the Yorii prefecture. \nMENU \nNabeyaki Udon Soup with: \nHandmade Udon Noodles\nMentsuyu broth\nSimmered chicken thighs and vegetables\nMarbled egg \nCurry Korokke (potato croquettes) \nHomestyle Salad with Black Sesame Dressing \n*Menu can be vegetarian with advance notice. Email info@18reasons.org to request a vegetarian substitution.* \nThis menu contains the following common allergens: Soy\, Wheat\, Fish\, Eggs\, Sesame. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions that concern your ability to cook along\, please e-mail info@18reasons.org before purchasing a ticket. \nLet’s Cook Together!  \nBorn and raised in Colorado\, Elise Hayashi grew up in a family where knowing how to use a paring knife was more important than riding a bicycle. This sparked her passion for food and cooking at an early age\, and she enthusiastically relocated to the Bay Area to study nutrition science at UC Berkeley. Outside of the classroom\, Elise helped implement childhood obesity and exercise research\, and worked as a pastry assistant to fill her free time with galettes and mousses. She also broadened her experience with food by studying and cooking her way through the Mediterranean diet in Italy\, and working on an organic farm in Japan. Now\, she is excited to merge her gastronomic backgrounds\, and lean into her Japanese and Korean heratige to share her love of food with the 18 Reasons community. During the rare moments when she is not eating\, Elise can be found trying out new sports\, playing and listening to live music\, or wandering the aisles of grocery stores and farmers’ markets.

SUMMARY:Manny’s: Elon Musk by Walter Isaacson Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Famed biographer Walter Isaacson has just completed a major biography of Elon Musk. Whether you like him\, hate him\, are afraid of him\, or are in awe of him – Elon Musk is one of the most consequential people on the Earth. I believe that even if you hate someone it’s important to know them and while the more recent version of Elon Musk\, in my personal opinion\, leaves a pretty terrible taste in my mouth I’m fascinated by him and I love Walter Isaacson as an author. \nSo\, if you want to learn about who this man is and how he got to the place that he has then join Manny’s lunch time book club! \nWe will meet weekly for 5 weeks on Wednesdays for lunch and discussion at Manny’s (lunch is included in the cost of registration and will be vegetarian). \nIn order to keep up with the book club you will need to read 17 pages a day roughly. \nIf you’re in\, go ahead and register (ideally for all five). \nLooking forward to reading and learning with you. \nIf you have any questions\, please email angelina@welcometomannys.com
