Souffle D'Orient

Classical Oriental | Lebanon | 2004

André Msane is a highly versatile oud player, equally at ease with modal improvisations ("Taqâsîm"), Lebanese song, Arabic popular music and the hymns of the great Syriac tradition. ‘Nassim Al Shark’ combines the drive for melody and harmony with classical rhythms and modes; the album consists of a series of pieces demanding great technical virtuosity, in which the oud revisits the classical modes of Arabic music, as well as compositions that give free rein to instrumental improvisation.
