Les Egarés more than a record. It's play space, a locus of musical life, a poetic asylum inhabited by two twosomes who for years have excelled in the art of cross-fertilising sounds and transcending genres.

Sissoko, Segal, Parisien, Peirani: Les Egarés

University of Warwick

Washington Performing Arts presents an evening where the musical worlds of Central Asia, China, the Middle East, and contemporary Europe meet in striking and unexpected harmony. Five performers from the Aga Khan Master Musicians—an artistic collective dedicated to living musical traditions—are joined by celebrated French artists Vincent Peirani and Vincent Ségal for a concert that is wholly its own.

Syrian-born Basel Rajoub has reimagined an entirely new vocabulary for the saxophone; his compatriot Feras Charestan commands the qanun, the shimmering Middle Eastern plucked zither. Turkish oud master Yurdal Tokcan and Uzbek percussionist Abbos Kosimov, a virtuoso on the doira frame drum, complete the collective’s lineup. They are joined by Vincent Peirani, award-winning accordionist, singer, and composer whose work spans jazz, contemporary music, and improvisation, and by cellist and bassist Vincent Ségal, whose collaborators have included Sting, Cesaria Evora, and Elvis Costello. Seven distinct voices in one extraordinary evening.

Aga Khan Master Musicians

Sixth & I

Michael Wollny has long been one of the most adventurous figures on the European jazz scene. In this programme, the pianist revisits four of his musical projects, each exploring different styles, collaborations and sound worlds. In his solo Winterreise, he reimagines Schubert’s famous song cycle as darkly Romantic jazz improvisations.
