The Astounding Eyes of Rita

Album by Anouar Brahem

The Astounding Eyes of Rita is a studio album by Tunisian oud player Anouar Brahem, released in 2009. The music is rooted in Arab classical melody and modern jazz harmony, with sparse, chamber-like arrangements that emphasise silence and lyrical oud phrasing, and the album sits within Brahem's later work that focuses on jazz-inflected chamber settings.
