dweck-lec'-tic: Kenan Adnawi

Kenan Adnawi is a well-established Oud virtuoso from Syria. He started playing Oud at the age of 7. Since then, he went through perfecting his performance earning him a long list of awards and an impeccable reputation at an International level. Adnawi performs as a soloist and as part of ensembles and orchestras in some of the major international events and venues and alongside some the world-renowned artists such as Marcel Khalifa and Bryan Adams. Adnawi's concerts are famous for their experimental rhythms and sounds that engage the audience in new musical experiences every time. Adnawi receives a great deal of support to continue to perform and express new ideas for this kind of music improvisation. It is especially gratifying to introduce the Oud, an instrument mostly known in the Middle East, the Arab World and countries such as Turkey, Greece and the Balkans, to audiences around the world.

dweck-lec'-tic is made possible in part with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature.
