 ic quartet featuring Jongkuk Kim on drums (Aaron Parks\, Meshell\, Dayna S
 tephens…) and Sam Minaie on bass (Tigran Hamassian\, Dhafer Youssef…).

  devoted their life to Jazz Music. Tarek Yamani lives between New York and

  the prestigious "Thelonious Monk Int'l Jazz Composers Competition" for hi
 s composition "Sama'i Yamani"\, Tarek has been part of 4 all-star global c
 oncerts of the International Jazz Day and shared the stage with luminaries
  such as Wayne Shorter\, Richard Bona\, Zakir Hussein\, Esperanza Spalding
 \, Antonio Sanchez\, Brian Blade and Vinnie Colaiuta.\n\nDescribed by Radi

 ration” and Yacine Boulares has recently accompanied Archie Shepp for th
