This multi-dimensional project provides a personal view of the middle eastern music. Based on improvisation as a key for freedom, Waxing Moon gives respiration to music. The approach of the group is to renew the middle eastern melodies by introducing a diversity of musical languages (jazz, contemporary music), and by linking it to different artistic expressions (poetry, Movies or audiovisual media).
Waxing moon is a dialogue between the virtuosity of the intuitive colors of Yacine Amarouchene’s electric guitar and the emotional dimensions of Ziad Ben Youssef’s oud.
