The Astounding Eyes of Rita jazz album was created by oud player and composer Anouar Brahem in 2008. The musician is famous for his unique combinations of classical Arabic melodies and jazz, with the addition of elements of folk music. Anouar Brahem is the oud’s conjuror, a master at bringing out the acoustic magic which this ancient traditional Oriental lute carries inside its calabash: the musical heritage of the Arab and Islamic worlds.
This evening the Anouar Brahem Quartet will perform The Astounding Eyes of Rita concert. Klaus Gesing (bass clarinet) and Björn Meyer (bass) are both players with an affinity for musical sources beyond jazz, and they interact persuasively inside Brahem’s music. This is a dance of dark, warm sounds, urged onwards by the darbouka and frame drum of Lebanese percussionist Khaled Yassine (darbouka, bendir).
