The brothers Elia, Basil and Osama Khoury, ever faithful to the great tradition of Classical Arabic music have never ceased to explore the inventive nature of that art. They belong to a generation of musicians whose musical journey emanate from the tradition of classical court musicians such as the Grand Ziryab (784-857) whom has left his mark across, from Abbasid Baghdad to Umayyad Cordoba. For there was once a time when art, music and song played a nationalistic and institutional role in an East that was all the same Arab, Greek, Persian and Turkish. Alain Weber (World Music Programming consultant at La Cité de la Musique, Salle Pleyel & Musée du Quai Branly Paris, Artistic Director of Le Festival Les Orientales- France & Portugal).
