Dhafer Youssef is going to introduce his new project tonight in Beirut at the Liban Jazz Festival.
The Tunisian artist shall perform at 9:00 PM with his sextet, and special guests Norvegian artists trumpeter Nils Petter Molvaer and guitarist Eivind Aarset will join his performance.
This concert with a repertoire consisting of compositions from the new album he is working on, was announced by the organizers as the avant premiere of the project.
Tonight’s performance is expected with eagerness because a meeting of such superior musicians is always a unique artistic happening.
