Twelve Freedoms is the second piece of my forthcoming independent record, "Tessellation."
Tessellation is a collaboration of 25 different artists from all around the world. It features musicians from Turkey, Iran, Tunisia, Israel, India, China, and the United States. It is deeply inspired by Pan-Arabic approaches to melody and blends traditional instrumentation with both futurism and technology.
Practicing the Duduk, studying the rich musical systems of other cultures, and collaborating with people from around the world have been a special way for me to connect with an Arabic heritage that I am otherwise very disconnected from.
In darkening days, I believe that studying and blending the art and music of different cultures allows us to connect on deep levels and raise bridges of empathy and understanding through the sophisticated languages of art.
