This starkly beautiful collection of 13 tracks by Tunisian composer
Anouar Brahem is his debut release for the ECM label. The album
spotlights Brahem’s solo oud pieces, which range from the
meditative («Sadir») to the propulsive («Ronda»). This solo work is
nicely augmented by stellar contributions from violinist Bechir
Selmi and percussionist Lassad Hosni; Selmi is featured on the
transcendent «Barzakh,» while Hosni figures prominently on «Souga»
and «Bou Naouara.» The three musicians come together for the joyous
dance number «Parfum de Gitane.» Throughout Barzakh, Brahem and the
others forge an appealing mix of Middle Eastern sonorities and jazz
phrasing, an intimate sound perfectly suited to the clean and
spacious ECM recording style. This is a great title for fans of
both international music and jazz. ~ Stephen Cook
