Blue Maqams is an album by oud player and composer Anouar Brahem recorded in New York in 2017 and released on the ECM label. The album received wide acclaim around the world. In DownBeat Bobby Reed wrote "The result is a program that features traditional music from Arab culture as well as more modern jazz elements. The word "maqam" refers here to Arabic melodic art, but also to Iraqi maqam, as practiced by master oud player Munir Bashir. Each musician shines here".

Blue Maqams is not Brahem's first recording to include a "jazz" rhythm section; 1995's also-wonderful Khomsa is a septet date anchored by another decades-old rhythm team, double bassist Palle Danielsson and drummer Jon Christensen. If every album in his discography represents some kind of artistic breakthrough, Blue Maqams goes a step further; as exciting as its relentless unpredictability is, it's a conceptual breakthrough that will, no doubt, be even more thrilling in performance.

Only 11 left in stock (more on the way). Only 3 left in stock (more on the way). Always chill throughout, this album for me, is a sonic encapsulation of an illuminated beautiful blue, Twilight-lit night in the desert! Easily one of the best ECM albums this year, I can't recommend this highly enough! At well over an hour of amazing music, it is certainly worth the price for any lover of unique ECM modern jazz!
