Zehra present the debut album
Istehlal
by the
Mohamad Zatari Trio
, consisting of musicians from Syria, Iran, and India. The trio merges traditional Middle Eastern sounds with contemporary vibes including interpretations of
Hossein Alizadeh
and
Riad Al-Sunbati
classics. In a contemporary globalized world where music has lost its borders and is fighting a constant --yet particular -- stream of Western commodification, the Mohamad Zatari Trio stands out as an original cultural artifact, aiming at transcending the boundaries between different music worlds. Founded in 2019, the ensemble had its first public appearance in 2020 at the Outernational Virtual Festival. Comprising the performers
Sara Eslami
(Iran) on tar,
Avadhut Kasinadhuni
(India/Romania) on tabla, and
Mohamad Zatari
(Syria) on oud. Their debut
Istehlal
plunges into its own aesthetics, politics, and sound intricacies and represents the combined efforts of three musicians hailing from different, yet deeply rooted cultures. Over the course of eleven songs, the album transcends stylistic, ideologic, and geographic boundaries and reflects on the human condition in an interconnected and interrelated technological world. The repertoire includes not only original compositions in different stylistics but also rearranged traditional pieces by influential composers
Riad Al Sunbati
(Egypt) and
Hossein Alizadeh
(Iran). The Mohamad Zatari Trio introduces itself as a strong new voice within a new generation of young musicians that carry the musical heritage of great masters like
Ravi Shankar
,
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
, or
Zakir Hussain
with a fresh and contemporary approach.
