Tarek Yamani Plays Piano Solo at Metro Al Madina

Metro Al Madina is hosting a piano solo performance of Jazz standards, Brazilian songs, and original compositions by Tarek Yamani.

Yamani is an award winning, New York based, self-taught Jazz pianist and composer who got exposed to Jazz around the age of 19. He was fortunate to be able to explore this great Black American art form on his own, by decoding theory books and transcribing Jazz records.

In 2010, Tarek won the “Thelonious Monk Int’l Jazz Composer’s Competition” for his composition “Sama’i Yamani” which is featured in his debut album “Ashur” released on Edict Records and with the collaboration of Goran Krmac on tuba and Kristijan Krajncan on drums.

Entrance fee: $20
