A six-time ARIA award winning composer and Oud virtuoso, Joseph Tawadros is a larger-than life-character in both music and personality.
Joseph Tawadros’ music draws upon thousands of years of ancient traditions which he presents in a fresh, vibrant and engaging way with influences of jazz, flamenco, prog rock and even bluegrass.
From furiously fast numbers to more slow and meditative reflections, Tawadros weaves in humorous onstage banter and storytelling, while his performances break down barriers of what people think of the instrument and the ‘world music’ idiom – in his iconic fashion.
His performances are a vibrant take on the oud, showcasing its flexibility through his ability to challenge traditional forms and break down barriers in meter and melody. Come and see Tawadros in his element and hear the oud as you’ve never heard it before in what promises to be a special evening of music, storytelling and laughter.
