An innovative melancholy sound by Yazz Ahmed inspired by the traditional seafaring chants of Bahraini pearl divers and women’s wedding songs which she fused with elements of jazz and electronica. |
Since releasing Finding My Way Home in 2011, British-Bahraini trumpet player and composer Yazz Ahmed has emerged as a distinctive voice on the UK jazz scene. She won praise as the leader of two musical ensembles, the Yazz Ahmed Quitnet quintet and Ahmed Family Hafla septet.
Over her career, Yazz has performed with her at venues around the world and collaborated with international artists from various genres. Her musical talents and dual heritage make her a unique cultural ambassador. She has presented Bahrain and the UK in a number of high-profile cultural exchange initiatives.
Yazz has written two major suites, Alhaan al Siduri which was inspired by Bahrain’s heritage and legend of Gilgamesh and Polyhymnia. The suites earned her rave reviews and worldwide critical acclaim, and she is currently working on her second album with her two ensembles and which features more of her unique soundscapes and creative collaborations.
