“Les Arrivants” is the encounter of 3 musicians recently settled in Montreal. This trio includes Amijai Shalev, (Argentina / Israel) on bandoneon, Abdul Wahab Kayyali (Jordan) on oud and Hamin Honari on daf and tombak (Iran / British Columbia). Through this project, they combine the traditions of Argentine tango, Arabic music and Persian rhythms. While paying tribute to their rich and original traditions, they also get inspired by their own personal and professional experiences to create a new space for dialogue. Together, they aim to cross the boundaries of their traditions and create an entirely new experience for themselves and for listeners. As Montreal becomes their home, their music also reflects their relationship and new attachment to the metropolis.
