When cultures meet in the music of the Masmoudi Quartette, the result is rather extraordinary. Jazz is infused with a rich interplay of Western and Middle Eastern instrumentation to create a tapestry of sound that is familiar and unexpected at the same time. Group leader Mohamed Masmoudi hails from Tunisia and his music incorporates influences from a lifetime devoted to study, travel and performance. His works are known for a melodic richness and multifaceted texture. A sampling of the Masmoudi playbook is a stroll through moods and landscapes, from the sprightly Labyrinthe to the sultry Moorish Tango.

Masmoudi is joined by Guillame Martineau (piano), Gabriel Paquin-Buki (clarinet) and Rémi-Jean Leblanc (double bass). Audiences will be intrigued by a mosaic of classical, jazz, and world music quite unlike any other.

Presented by the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra and the Saskatoon Jazz Society
