The Masmoudi Quartet, created by Tunisian oud player Mohamed Masmoudi, is a Montreal based group composed of four talented musicians of diverse backgrounds. His path has been forged by a rich variety of influences, such as classical, jazz and world music – especially of the Middle East. Together, the four musicians perfectly balance, creating beautifully written arrangements and surprising and stunning improvisations. The Eastern sounds of the oud are adorned with those of classical, jazz and Eastern Europe brilliantly brought forth via the piano, double bass and clarinet.
