"Roots and Chords Music" proudly presents Enver Izmaylov with the "String Across Continents" USA tour as part of the World Music Series for Summer 2024.
Enver Izmaylov is a revered world, folk, and jazz guitarist hailing from Ukraine, acknowledged as one of the top 100 guitarists of all time. A true innovator, Enver introduced the unique technique of "tapping" to electric guitar playing, crafting mesmerizing melodies by simultaneously playing with both hands on the neck, akin to a keyboard. His music embodies a rich tapestry of jazz, Mediterranean and oriental folklore, classical harmony, and breathtaking virtuosity.
Raised in Fergana city, Uzbekistan, as a Crimean Tartar, Enver infuses his compositions with a diverse array of influences from Eastern, Uzbek, Tartar, Moldavian, and Bulgarian traditions. Experimenting with sound, Enver's guitar transforms into an array of instruments, from lute to synth, cimbalom to percussion kit, and sitar. His compositions, characterized by "nonsquare" time signatures and temperamental melodies, captivate audiences worldwide.
Combining Crimean Tatar traditional music with Turkish, Uzbek, Balkan, classical, and jazz elements, Enver has graced numerous folk and jazz festivals across Europe and the USA, earning multiple prestigious awards for his groundbreaking contributions to music.
In 2024, Enver headlines the renowned Jetlag festival and embarks on the "String Across Continents" tour across the USA. Watch Enver Izmaylov
