Dhafer Youssef

After the phenomenal success of his previous album “Birds Requiem”, the grand master of Oud, outstanding vocalist and prolific composer Dhafer Youssef (page officielle) returned with a most anticipated album “Diwan Of Beauty And Odd”, affirming himself as one of the most innovative musicians of the last decade.

Join us at Dar El-Nimer for a conversation between Dhafer Youssef and Pierre Abi Saab to hear all about Dhafer’s very singular approach to Oud, his collaborations and the fusion between his traditional instrument, his spiritual voice, and the New York groove.

For his long-awaited return to Beirut organized by LIBAN JAZZ, Dhafer Youssef will be giving two concerts at Music Hall (November 19 and 21) accompanied by the finest jazz musicians of New York: Aaron Parks on piano, Matt Brewer on bass, Justin Faulkner on drums.
