Andalusyria

Syria / Spain / Cuba

With Andalusyria, three instrumentalist composers come together to create an original repertoire at the crossroads of different musical traditions. Nazih Borish, a Syrian musician based in Montreal, is a self-taught oud virtuoso; Gabriel Evangelista, a Montrealer of Spanish origin, is a flamenco-jazz pianist and Hanser Santos Gómez, a cuban percussionnist. Both have developed their own musical language over the course of their careers. They are involved in this artistic encounter by combining their cultural and personal horizons.
