See TV listings for this programme

Exclusive look behind the scenes at the launch of the V&A's Jameel Gallery of Islamic Art. Including Lebanese composer Oussama Rahbani, who wrote the specially-commissioned music for the event.

Oussama Rahbani is the youngest son of Mansour Rahbani who is one of the legendary Rahbani Brothers. He was born in Lebanon on December 9 1965. Growing up in the Rahbani household, music was a big part of Oussama's life from very early on. From the age of 8, he studied piano and music theory with the renowned teacher Hagop Arslanian.

Since then he has been busy releasing numerous CDs and composing for various musicals. Today he is proud to provide the music for the opening of the V&A's Jameel Gallery, which celebrates Islamic art.
