Dhafer Youssef

Divine Shadows - Part One

Thursday 24 May 2007 19:30-20:10 (Radio 3)

Live from the Assembly Rooms in Bath, Petroc Trelawny presents the first half of a concert by Tunisian-born singer and oud virtuoso Dhafer Youssef, whose haunting Sufi-inspired music has caught the hearts and minds of audiences across the world. From humble beginnings when Youssef made his own oud by piecing together bits and pieces he found near his Tunisian home, he has become widely acclaimed and produced several albums along with his band, which consists of the very best of Norwegian electronic nu-jazz.

40 minutes
