> Arabian Nights
Once upon a time there was the East, once upon a time there was the West; today there are the Arabian Nights. Beyond the concept of contamination, Kristian Järvi, Daniel Schnyder and Dhafer Youssef rewrite contemporary music history on a repertoire that was born by the contribution of the genius and of everyone’s traditions. Oud, nay, darbouka and Islamic chant tune Arabian tales that fade into a suite leaning to groove rock. Fascination of music language, seducing power of the voice, and pure passion for sound evolution, all in a “one thousand and one night” concert.
