The live London launch of her most recent Naim CD, trumpeter and composer Yazz Ahmed takes a further step on a musical journey that embraces her Bahraini roots alongside the new moves and grooves of today’s jazz radicals. Undulating rhythms and melody resonant with the sounds and sensations of the Middle East, and her own sonorous trumpet lines combine in music of cinematic breadth.

‘A potent mix of post-bop lyricism and modern fusion soundscaping makes connections with both head and heart.’ Bandcamp
