About — The artist

Anouar Brahem (Arabic: أنور ابراهم), born on October 20, 1957, in Tunis, is a Tunisian oud player and composer.

He has significantly altered the traditional role of the oud, modernising it and confronting it with Western music, particularly jazz. He is considered a modern musician, while possessing a deep knowledge of traditional Arabic music.

Anouar Brahem has played with numerous jazz musicians including Jan Garbarek, Dave Holland, John Surman, and Jack DeJohnette.
