Astrakan café is an album by Tunisian oud player Anouar Brahem recorded in June 1999 and released on ECM the following year.[1]
Reception
The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek called it "deeply personal, profound music. It is also highly iconographic, with timelessness woven through every measure... This would be traditional music if a tradition such as this—which is original, though adapted from many sources on inspiration—actually existed. Highly recommended."[2]
