Awarded by the Journées Musicales de Carthage in Tunisia and the Prix de la Presse Musicale in France, Aleph Quintet is one of the recent revelations of the Brussels music scene. They particularly came to the fore in 2023 with their album Shapes of Silence (Igloo Records).
Composed of five musicians, Akram Ben Romdhane (oud), Marvin Burlas (violin), Wajdi Riahi (piano), Théo Zipper (bass), Maxime Aznar (drum), the Aleph Quintet blend North African music with jazz improvisation, Gnawa rhythms and Sufi culture, bearing witness to their roots, and retracing the years of travel during which the collective united around music.
