What to expect
Eight years after Blue Maqams, Anouar Brahem returns to DE SINGEL with After the Last Sky.
The title comes from a line by the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish.
Brahem links the words to a metaphysical question and to their resonance in a restless time.
The international quartet is Brahem with Django Bates on piano, Anja Lechner on cello and Mats Eilertsen on double bass.
- Chamber music for oud, cello, piano, double bass
- Arabic traditions meet jazz in the quartet
- Composition and improvisation blend subtly
- Close dialogue shapes a poetic, introspective soundscape
- Cello marks the beginning and the end
- First time cello is central in Brahem's ensemble
- Django Bates adds energetic piano and swirling solos
