Nadir was born from an idea. A cultural melting pot. No boundaries. And thus began the journey of crafting and bringing to life this idea. Like its Malay translation ( rare ) the band strives to make music that is rare and unique, combining different life experiences and emotions, manifested in the colourful plethora of sounds from various cultures in Malaysia and around the world.

Bringing you some world flavour with their rock, jazz, alternative soup, the band have almost finished working on their debut album and are ready to send some great music through to the pathways of your musical soul and mesmerize you. Are you listening ?

indie collective that spawns new blend of post-punk revival/underground hip hop

Constantine Finehouse was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, and attended New England Conservatory, Juilliard and Yale. His principle teachers included Fredrik Wanger, Natalia Harlap, Herbert Stessin, Jerome Lowenthal, Boris Berman and Bruce Brubaker.   Praised by Rhein Main Presse Allgemeine Zeitung for his "interpretations of depth and maturity,” Finehouse has performed extensively in the US (including in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island and Washington) and abroad (including in Lausanne, London, Odessa, St. Petersburg and Trieste).  His newest album with cellist Sebastian Baverstam features the universally-admired Brahms Sonata No. 1 for piano and cello as well as several new works in the High Romantic style by Boston composer Tony Schemmer.  His 2009 solo recording, Backwards Glance [Spice Rack Records 101-01], interweaves music of Johannes Brahms and Richard Beaudoin. 

The Bolcom Project, made in collaboration with his American Double partner, violinist Philip Ficsor, included a double-CD [Albany Troy 959/960] and a national tour. Fanfare praised the recording as “indispensable to any serious collector with an interest in later 20th century duo repertoire for violin and piano.” As part of American Double, Finehouse also toured Hungary, performing sonatas by Brahms, Bolcom and Ravel.  More recently, he collaborated with violinist Olga Caceànova at Lausanne Conservatoire and with cellist Sebastian Bäverstam at Weill Recital Hall (Carnegie Hall) and Merkin Recital Hall (Kauffman Center). Finehouse is currently recording Bolcom’s complete piano solo works for Naxos Records. 

The 2011-2012 season brings recitals celebrating Liszt's bicentennial.   Finehouse will be featured as a soloist and in chamber music performances across the United States.  He has been awarded the Vladimir Horowitz Scholarship from Juilliard, a 2004 St. Botolph Club Foundation Grant and 2006 Classics Abroad Project Award.  He serves on the faculty of New England Conservatory Preparatory and Extension Divisions in Boston  and as Visiting Artist/Faculty at Westmont College, Santa Barbara.
