»Diwan of Beauty and Odd«
When Dhafer Youssef left his Tunisian home nearly 30 years with vague musical plans, he could not have guessed that he would eventually collaborate with the crème de la crème of the international jazz scene, as he does on his latest album, »Diwan of Beauty and Odd«, which he recorded with luminaries of the New York scene such as Aaron Parks or Ben Williams. Dhafer Youssef belongs to those jazz musicians from the Arab world, who have managed to really reconcile the different musical traditions of the orient and the west. Jazz was always curious to explore Africa’s sound worlds. In Dhafer Youssef's music, they come together with American and European jazz to form an irresistible mix.
