There’s more to tune into at the Kingdom’s Melody Festival. An exhibition about the major milestones in Saudi music is also part of the festival. The exhibition will feature three themes: Saudi music’s early recordings, the timeline of Saudi composers and the most popular Saudi songs from the 1960s to 2000s.
