Akram’s tenth independent release is his first solo violin album, a rare and intimate journey into the art of Taqasim. Deeply influenced by the great Arab violin masters, he presents a personal exploration of the maqam tradition, blending classical forms with his own unique voice and expressive depth. From his musical roots at home to inspirations gathered across the Far East, Akram reimagines the maqam through the voice of the violin. His style moves fluidly across traditions, drawing on the the vibrant colors of the levant and the wider Arab world.
This album is released as a living documentation of a heritage he hopes will never disappear and as one of the rare official records placing the violin at the forefront of Arabic improvisation. Each improvisation stands as both a tribute to the masters who shaped him and a step into his own sonic language, preserving tradition while carving out new space for the violin in Arab music
