Aeham Ahmad (SYR)

The syrian pianist, singer, and "Creole"-World Music Prize winner Aehamd Ahmad and the australian saxophonist Steve Schofield invite you on a musical journey between their home countries. Oriental songs meet Western influences, classical music meets modern jazz arrangements, traditional tunes meet contemporary sound. The success of such a crossover was evident at the Bardentreffen in 2018, where Aeham Ahmad and Edgar Knecht captivated the audience. Many thanks to Musikhaus Klier for providing the grand piano.
