SUMMARY:Jazz in the House: Maydan Ensemble
DESCRIPTION:The Maydan Ensemble traverses international bounds and gen
 res, creating an inclusive and irresistible sound that blends modern j
 azz with Arabic, Anatolian and Persian folk music.\nThe Maydan Ensembl
 e of the North London Jazz Collective is a fully international quint
 et comprising some of London's busiest jazz musicians: the rising-sta
 r vocalist Amena from Egypt, acclaimed Irish-Iranian jazz guitarist 
 Kourosh Kanani, ⁠Italian-English bassist and stalwart of the London
  jazz scene Lorenzo Morabito, Londoner Robbie Ellison on drums and one
  the finest Iranian folk musicians in London, Parham Bahadoran on reed
 s (zurna, duduk and clarinet).  \n‘Maydan’ means ‘town square�
 �� or ‘public meeting place’. Originating in Farsi, the word is no
 w used across Arabic, Turkish, Urdu, Kurdish, Georgian and Ukrainian. 
 The name reflects the group’s belief that music, like the town squar
 e, is where cultures meet — rooted in communal life and shared exper
 ience, with the power to connect and, at times, quietly challenge.\nTh
 eir repertoire explores the meeting point between jazz and Middle East
 ern musical traditions from two directions: jazz standards inspired by
  West Asia, and the group’s own jazz-inflected arrangements of Arabi
 c, Anatolian and Persian folk songs.\nHaving formed at the start of 20
 25, the Maydan Ensemble have wowed audiences, selling out multiple ve
 nues across UK and beyond, including Palestine House and the Green Not
 e, as well as recently headlining Zeman World Music Festival in Serbia
