Hailed by Fanfare Magazine as “a major new addition to the 21st century’s symphonic literature,” Malek Jandali’s symphonic works have been described by Gramophone as “deeply enigmatic with voices and in tongues emerging from the composer’s Syrian heritage that generously repay more reflective listening” with “heart-rending melodies, lush orchestration, clever transitions and creative textures.” American Record Guide.

His large-scale orchestral works integrate Arabic maqams (modes) with persuasive craft and a marked seriousness of purpose that echo UNESCO’s call to preserve and protect the rich cultural heritage of his homeland Syria at a time when it is being eradicated. “Jandali captures the struggle, trauma and triumph of our displaced brothers and sisters, through the voice of a child. It is a beautiful and important message.” Marin Alsop

Recent commissions and premieres include a Viola Concerto for Roberto Diaz, a String Quartet for the Nashville Symphony Orchestra, and a world premiere by Baltimore Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Marin Alsop who described The Silent Ocean as “an evocative and emotional journey for musicians and audience members. In this piece Jandali captures the struggle, trauma and triumph of our displaced brothers and sisters, through the voice of a child. It is a beautiful and important message.”

Midwest Reese, born May 24 1991, and raised in Detroit, was always drawn to the gritty, industrial landscape of the Midwest. Growing up in a working-class family, he saw firsthand the struggles of the people in his community and the resilience they showed in the face of adversity. This experience would have a profound impact on his music and his worldview.

At the age of 14, Reese discovered a passion for music and started writing and recording his own songs.

Reese hit the ground running. He released a string of critically acclaimed mixtapes and began performing at venues across the Midwest. His unique blend of hip-hop and R&B, infused with the gritty, industrial sounds of the Midwest, quickly made him one of the most talked-about artists in the industry. Reese’s music resonates with people from all walks of life and continues to inspire and uplift the community.

Inspired by Ariel Medeiro.

Music can´t exist without having the true feeling of love which allows you to feel and create it, followed by the passion of transmitting it.

I like create a harmonic combination of unique and hard-to-forget sensory sounds.

Its prodigious melodies, inspired by transcendent bass lines, culminate in spatial atmospheres with ethereal synthesizers.

I invite you to start an extrasensory journey where everything will be possible with our music.
