🎸 Aleph Quintet

About

Aleph Quintet is a Brussels-based jazz ensemble whose members have roots in Tunisia, Portugal and France. Playing ud, violin, piano, bass and drums, they weave jazz improvisation together with Maghreb music, Gnawa, and classical Arabic and Sufi traditions. Their third album Hiwar, like the debut Shapes of Silence, was warmly received across the European jazz press.
