One of the most renowned names in contemporary world music, 'ud and violin master Simon Shaheen comes to Cornell for a not-to-be-missed performance of his composition project Zafir, which mixes the Arab music of Al-Andalus with Spanish flamenco and global jazz. Subtitled "Musical Winds from North Africa to Andalucia," the concert features the Al Qantara ensemble joined by a Tunisian singer, a flamenco vocalist/multi-instrumentalist, and a dancer.
