Dardishi Festival Rihab Azar Trio

Rihab Azar Trio will take you on a journey through the rich sounds of both classical and contemporary Middle-Eastern music with the unique combination of oud (Rihab Azar), upright-bass (Dudley Phillips) and percussion (Corrina Silvester).

Rihab Azar is a Syrian oud player and music educator, graduate of the Conservatoire of Damascus. Rihab was the first woman oudist to perform accompanied by the Syrian National Orchestra for Arabic Music (2014). In 2015, she was a recipient of a Chevening scholarship which enabled her to study Music Education at Master’s level at UCL. Arts Council England recognised her as a musician of "exceptional promise” (2016). Since 2015, Rihab has been performing around the UK, collaborating on several interdisciplinary and cross-genre projects.
