Fearlessly placing the kanun—the shimmering Mediterranean harp—at the center of a jazz quartet, a hybrid ensemble, and an Arab Takht ensemble, Zreik reimagines the instrument as both a rhythmic engine and melodic force. He builds a world of Maqam-driven melodies woven through rich harmonic and modal landscapes that feel fresh, organic, and defiantly new. Based in New York City, Zreik is a Palestinian composer and kanunist who recently received Grammy recognition as a songwriter and performer on Residente's award-winning album Las Letras Ya No Importan, and composed The Art of Kanun, a film music album commissioned by Universal Music Production France. He is an official showcase artist at WOMEX 2022, a MacDowell Fellow, and has performed at Lincoln Center, Joe's Pub, and The Jazz Gallery. With \u003cem\u003eTarabesque,\u003c\/em\u003e Zreik signals the emergence of a new musical language—merging Tarab, the ecstatic listening state central to Arab musical traditions, with global influences to create a sound timeless, urgent, and entirely his own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Maqam Records","offers":[{"title":"LP - Black","offer_id":57516132270411,"sku":"R9857-0429","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":57516132499787,"sku":"R9857-5739","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/unnamed-2026-06-05T131311.370.jpg?v=1780661601","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/tarabesque","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
