Ihab Radwan was born in Cairo. He began learning the violin and the oud (Oriental lute) at the age of five, and then went on to study at the Egyptian National Academy of Music. His original compositions include musical features from rural parts of Northern Egypt to Nubia, in the South, at the border between Egypt and Black Africa. He developed an Oriental approach to pentatonic scales such as are used in African music and the blues. He performs as multi-instrumentalist with the company “Lutherie Urbaine” in Paris. He was also associated with the ensemble Sharkiat Fathy Salama (Grammy prize 2005 world music), in various concerts at the Cairo opera house, and El Qalaa and Alexandria festivals. He composed and played with the Tunisian singer Amina Annabi. Ihab is the oud player of Egyptian Mozart (Mozart l’Égyptien) of which a million recordings were sold in France and the world. |
