Qurb - The Music of Anouar Brahem
Barbes, 376 9th St, Brooklyn, NY 11215
The music of Tunisian composer and oudist Anouar Brahem is poetic, often wistfully meditative yet sparkling with energy. Surprisingly, his music is rarely performed by others, aside from a couple of his most well-known compositions. Qurb is an ensemble formed to explore his wide repertoire of compositions that are seldom heard, with musicians who all share his love of both traditional Arabic music and the expressive potential of jazz.
