Oud player Anouar Brahem has performed these pieces across a decade with different ensembles, but for the first time they were recorded in one studio setting.

KHOMSA was Tunisian oud virtuoso Anouar Brahem's fourth outing on ECM. But unlike previous efforts where Brahem was the most prominent member of his own handpicked ensemble (Barzakh,Conte de l'Incroyable Amour) or a collaborator with Jan Garbarek (Madar), he mainly takes a back seat here while other musicians elaborate on tunes he wrote for Tunisian films in the 1980s.

Anouar Brahem est à la musique ce que la mousse est aux arbres : douceur témoignage et fraîcheur. Il évolue dans sa belle légèreté dans deux mondes qu’il aura fait communiquer par des écluses de rosée : la musique traditionnelle tunisienne plus vaste que les déserts, et la musique de jazz plus immense que l’horizon. La même ferveur relie langoureusement ces univers musicaux entre mélopées et bruissements d’ailes
