George Gruntz Concert Jazz Band-Estival Jazz Lugano (2007)

Dahfer Youssef Montreux Jazz.Festival

Dhafer Youssef è diventato uno dei musicisti tunisini più conosciuti e apprezzati al mondo. Compositore, cantante e suonatore di oud, Youssef proprio grazie a questo strumento, dal quale riesce a trarre composizioni complesse improntate sulla tradizione araba, rappresenta un’unicità nella scena musicale contemporanea. Le radici della sua musica affondano nella tradizione Sufi e nella musica mistica, ma il musicista tunisino è sempre stato aperto alla musica di altre culture e al jazz. Youssef ha collaborato, tra gli altri, con Uri Caine, Tigran Hamasyan, Jon Hassell, Markus Stockhausen, Nguyên Lê, Omar Sosa, Hüsnü Senlendirici, il chitarrista norvegese Eivind Aarset e il trombettista Paolo Fresu. Lirismo arabo, potenza ritmica, improvvisazione contaminata da influenze multiculturali e jazzistiche sono le caratteristiche che distinguono le sue opere. Birds Requiem, il suo ultimo album, costruito come una colonna sonora cinematografica, è un’opera molto personale.
