Description

»I’ve always loved composing, I’ve always loved playing as a soloist with orchestra and I’ve always loved being able to improvise. So I decided to write a piece that would allow me to do it all at once!« This is how the Syrian composer and clarinettist Kinan Azmeh begins his foreword to »Suite for Improvisor and Orchestra«. Azmeh was born in Damascus, now lives in New York and has already performed with musical greats such as the New York Philharmonic, the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra and cellist Yo-Yo Ma. His composition combines impressions of Harlem with those of a marketplace in Damascus. The symphony orchestra combines this work from 2006 with Schubert’s 8th Symphony.

Violinist Badee Alhindi grew up in Palestine and Syria and currently lives in Germany. Through his many years of classical music studies in Damascus (Hochschule für Musik) and Berlin (Barenboim-Said Akademie), he developed an excellent technical level for the violin. He combines these skills with his stage experience and his life with Arabic, Ottoman and Baroque music – Badee Alhindi performs in a unique style of improvisation and ornamentation.
