Furat Qaddouri (فرات قدوري) - Al Raheel

Furat Hussein Qaddori Born 1970 in Baghdad, to a prominent family of musicians; whose father Hussein Qaddori was a musicologist that specialized in children's' folk songs & rhymes. His brother Qusay Qaddori is also a Cello player in the Budapest philharmonic orchestra Greatly inspired by the legendry oud player, the late Munir Bachir, Furat had eloquently acquired expertise in mastering the Qanoun (flat zither-type instrument). Education Baghdad School of Music & Ballet 1975 - 1986 Baghdad Institute of Musical Studies 1986 - 1992 Baghdad Academy of Fine Arts 1992 - 1995 According to Furat, the Qanoun has a specific tune that is closely related to Iraqi traditional music. It is a commonality that the Qanoun is part of the Oriental Takht (musical ensemble). However, Furat has extended its usage into being an instrument that can be played solo and he has succeeded in bringing out unique and expressive tunes. His participation in several international events has enabled him to mix and incorporate rhythms of various cultures specifically with Jazz & Latin tunes. Furat's musical compositions extends beyond being strictly a commercial approach, his music rather takes a deeper and more expressive style to continually enhance and innovate the Iraqi Maqam.( a 400 year old genre of Arabic Music found in Iraq) In 1998 - Jordan, Furat released his album 'Mesopotamian Qanoun'. His album successfully proved his ability to solely play the Qanoun as a stand-alone instrument. His innovativeness then led him to mélange other tunes into his music such as the Caribbean and Latin tunes and so he released his second album "The Spirit Calls". His relocation to Belgium, Germany & United Arab Emirates increased his cultural awareness and expanded his musical capabilities. His 3rd album, yet another more mature achievement was "Hanging Gardens" which is a tale about two people vowing eternal love to each other. Furat uses the Qanoun as the central key-instrument and links it in a fun-dialogical approach with other instruments incorporating traditional Iraqi music and other Middle Eastern rhythms.
