FARIS ISHAQ – EFG LONDON JAZZ FESTIVAL 2024

A Palestinian Nay Master and Percussionist, redefines the parameters of the Nay, an ancient Middle Eastern flute dating back to 5000 b.c.

With an evocative and improvisational approach, he plays the Nay while simultaneously accompanying himself on leg-percussion, seamlessly embodying a fresh and unique fusion of Middle Eastern, Jazz, and contemporary Folk sounds.

As part of the 2024 EFG London Jazz Festival, the talented Palestinian Composer brings his Kham Project to the English capital for traditional music explorations. Faris is renowned for revitalising traditional Palestinian shepherd playing while pioneering contemporary jazz.

The evening is presented by Marsm UK, as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival.
