A very subdued album that rewards repeated listening. Brahem's oud playing does not dominate, but blends with the piano and accordion, with echoes of Bill Evans, Philip Glass, Schubert and Chopin.
Anouar Brahem : oud François Couturier : piano Jean Louis Matinier : accordion
Voyage du Sahar - 2006
Very similar album to Le Pas du Chat Noir
Anouar Brahem : oud François Couturier : piano Jean Louis Matinier : accordion
The Astounding Eyes Of Rita - 2009 Brahem returns here to a more energetic style, with playing and compositions reminiscent of Astrakan Café and Thimar.
Anouar Brahem : oud Klaus Gesing : bass clarinet Björn Meyer : bass Khaled Yassine : darbouka, bendir
Madar - 1994 This is Garbarek's record, and it contains some compelling music. However, Garbarek has an unusual and strident tone of the saxophone, which is not everyone's cup of tea.
Jan Garbarek : tenor and soprano saxophones Anouar Brahem : oud Ustad Shaukat Hussain : tabla
There are also some bootlegs of Anouar Brahem concerts floating around teh internets. I don't want to link to them directly, but the concerts are:
Live In Salvator Kirche Church at Duisburg, Germany Live at Teatro Sociale, Bellinzona, Switzerland, 1998 (with John Surman and Dave Holland) Zürich International Jazz Festival 1993 (with Jan Garbarek and Shaukat Hussain)
