Shamat
Oriental Jazz | Syria | 2007
Building on the phenomenal success of their first album, Syrian-Armenian vocalist Lena Chamamyan and saxophone player Basel Rajoub continue their musical journey to present another collection of traditional and folkloric songs rendered in their unique jazzy style. Basels’ masterful arrangements respect the gentle nature and clarity of Lena’s voice, and leave room for brilliant solos by Turkish clarinet player Hüsnü Senlendirici and German accordion player Manfred Leuchter. A magical album that has promptly received critical as well as popular acclaim.
