Show Description
In this exciting New York CD-release, Bassam Saba performs the music of his long-awaited debut album Wonderful Land with his sextet, The Bassam Saba Ensemble. Saba's compositions, passionate and richly complex, are deeply rooted in Saba's native Lebanese and Arabic folk music, infused with elements of western classical arrangement. Saba, world-renowned nay virtuoso and multi-instrumentalist, has worked with an eclectic group of artists including Fairouz, Marcel Khalife, Sting, Alicia Keys, Simon Shaheen, Santana and Herbie Hancock. The Bassam Saba Ensemble features Bassam Saba on nay, oud, saz, flute and violin; Megan Gould on violin; William Martina on cello; Peter Slavov on bass; and April Centrone and Jamey Haddad (Paul Simon) on percussion.
