About

I’m Rabih Abi Rached, a musicologist, composer, arranger, and choir/orchestra conductor with more than 30 years of experience in arts, culture, and education in Lebanon. I’ve dedicated my career to mentoring students, coaching ensembles, and bringing together musicians, youth, and multidisciplinary teams through meaningful artistic and learning projects.

In addition to university-level music teaching, I’ve co-founded and served as former President of the Kleiat Association for Culture and Arts, where I helped coordinate conferences, cultural events, festivals, and community initiatives. I’m especially passionate about youth engagement and cultural programming, and I enjoy working with institutions and stakeholders to deliver workshops, orchestral/choral productions, and community-focused cultural actions.
