Ibrahim Maalouf On Tour

Hailed by the New York Times as a "virtuoso of the quarter-tone trumpet," Ibrahim Maalouf is a French-Lebanese jazz trumpeter and composer. But Maalouf is no ordinary composer. He strives to combine jazz improvisation with influences of European classical music, adding hints of the sounds from his home in France, and his native roots in Lebanon. Maalouf has been stealing the hearts of audiences worldwide since 1997 to pre. If you're a lover of jazz, you're not going to want to miss Ibrahim Maalouf when he comes to a city near you. Maalouf is currently on tour  traveling through Europe and North America. Playing from the young age of 7, the talent Ibrahim Maalouf displays pours out of him with ease. His sound is rich with flavor, tranquil, calming, as if the notes were just melting off the instrument. To get a feel for his music,isten to some of his most popular songs such as "Beirut," "El Mundo," "True Sorry," or "Una Rosa Blanca."

Ibrahim Maalouf Live In Concert

After having to leave his home country of Lebanon as a child during the Lebanese Civil War, Ibrahim Maalouf found his new home in Paris, France. His father, a very strong musician himself, taught Maalouf how to play classical, baroque, modern, and contemporary repertoires, as well as classical Arabic music and improvisation. Not only is he a musical genius, Maalouf studied in Paris until the age of 17 when he earned a degree in general science and specialized in mathematics. After earning his degree, Maalouf accompanied his dad in a jazz duo and traveled throughout Europe and the Middle East. Coming to the realization that his heart lies solely in the music, Maalouf made the decision to give up science. After that, he spent five years at Conservatoire de Paris working to become a teacher of improvisation. In 2007, Maalouf released his first hit solo album called Diasporas. Maalouf composed several full soundtracks for movies, composed complex pieces for choirs and orchestras, and competed in multiple international competitions. Between 1999 and 2003, Maalouf earned prestigious awards in 15 different competitions around the world. The success Maalouf has found is much deserved and his passion continues to shine through to this day.

    Lights destroyed the show

    by Theo on 2022-09-26MTELUS - Montreal

    Ibrahim is clearly an exceptional musician but the horrible lights destroyed the show. Having the lights shine on the audience is effective when used sparingly, not full on all the time. The tunes he chose were too much the same and the heavy handed arrangements were sometimes boring. Ibrahim: you can do better!

    too crowed !

    by M. B. on 2022-09-26MTELUS - Montreal

    The show was supposed to start at 8pm, and we got there at that time. It was jammed pack with people! Both levels was full, the stairs were full, everything! I finally started at 9:10pm. The only place we found was the stairs along the balcony! My friend was ok but I was standing between two steps and could barely see the stage! We hated it!

    Not impressed

    by Disappointed on 2022-09-26MTELUS - Montreal

    Nothing to say about the musicians, they were great. However, the sound was horrible, we could not hear what Ibrahim was saying when he spoke to the crowd. The place was overpacked, people had no where to go to actually see the show! I didn’t pay to watch it on a flimsy tv screen!! When you did find a place you could actually see the stage, security would make us move!! MTelus was a very disappointing location for this band. I’ve see other shows there and before when it was the metropolis and was never as disappointed with poor organization as I was Friday night. What a sh*t show! Sell less tickets and make it awesome instead of packing in as many as you can and leaving people in disgust.
