Synopsis

Product Description
If Ry Cooder ever picked up an oud, he d sound a lot like Adel Salameh!
Salameh, who has been described as the ambassador of Arab music in
the West, is surely one of the world s finest oud players. Born in Nablus,
Palestine, he immigrated to Europe in 1990 and quickly established a
reputation as one of the finest performers on the instrument.
Has performed in more than 30 countries including Japan, Australia,
Singapore, Hong Kong, South Africa, and numerous countries in North
Africa and Europe.
A proud Palestinian, Adel sees no contradiction in performing alongside
Israeli musicians. For him, it s a very natural, unselfconscious thing: one s
message should never overshadow the actual music being made. By turns
melancholic, intense, and uplifting, this music is forever compelling.
