Attab Haddad Ensemble

Arts Canteen presents Flamenco Arabe:  world-class Attab Haddad and his Ensemble create story-like compositions with the breadth of the Sahara and the intricacy of the Alhambra Palace.  

Drawing on roots in both Middle Eastern music and Flamenco, the vibrant ensemble plays original fresh compositions laced with contemporary jazz and classical flavours to create a sound that is unique to the band – a group which is made up of some of the UK’s finest musicians in their respective fields. 

Iraqi oud aficionado Attab Haddad is joined by one of Europe’s most established flamenco guitarists Ramón Ruíz, and some of the UK’s finest musicians in their respective fields, alongside flamenco dancer, Lourdes Fernandez Menayo, who will bring the emotion, drama and passion of flamenco to the stage.

Attab Haddad
Composer
Attab Haddad is a oud player and composer. He was born in the UK to Iraqi parents. After graduating with a degree in Business Management, Attab embarked on a career in business and finance, starting in property investment before moving to the City to work in private banking. In his mid twenties, Attab quit the City to re-train as a sound engineer and it was during this period that he started playing the oud and discovered a surprising aptitude and affinity for the instrument.
