Kinan Azmeh & Dinuk Wijeratne Concert

Kinan Azmeh & Dinuk Wijeratne are the fourth of five performances in the North Dakota Museum of Art's Winter Concert Series. The Series, long rooted in traditional Western Classical Music, is devoting the upcoming season to the cross pollination between World Music and Classical Music.

One of Syria's most beloved musicians, clarinetist Kinan Azmeh will be joined on the piano by Sri Lankan-born Dinuk Wijeratne in a concert of Arabic music infused with Western sounds and rhythms drawn from both Jazz and classical. Hailed as a "virtuoso" by the New York Times and cited for his "incredibly rich sound" by the CBC, Kinan Azmeh is one of Syria's rising stars who is fast gaining international recognition. Canadian Dinuk Wijeratne was recently praised by the CBC as an artist "internationally respected for his virtuosity and sensitivity as a musician."
