Zaid Jabri (Arabic: زيد جبري, romanized: Zaīd Ǧabrī) is a Syrian-Polish composer, conductor and music educator, who works at the intersection of Western and Middle Eastern musical traditions. He is one of the representatives of the so-called second generation of Syrian composers of the turn of the 20th to the 21st century. This generation also includes Syrian musicians and composers such as Shafi Badreddin, Kareem Roustom, Raad Khalaf, Kinan Azmeh, Hassan Taha and Basilius Alawad and has been characterized as "transforming modern Arab music into a contemporary space for experimentation."[1]
Jabri lives and works in Krakow, Poland, and has been a member of the Association of Polish Composers since 2011. He received creative recognition very early and made a significant contribution to the development of contemporary Syrian music in just a few years of active work. Works by Jabri have been performed throughout Europe, North America and the Middle East. Concerts with his music took place in Armenia, Belgium, Canada, Egypt, England, France, Germany (Berliner Philharmoniker), Greece, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Syria, Tunisia, Ukraine, the United Arab Emirates and in the USA (Carnegie Hall, New York).[2]
Jabri has received several awards and distinctions, among others from the Harvard Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, Rockefeller Foundation/Bellagio Center, and Columbia University's Institute for Ideas & Imagination. He has been collaborating with musical groups and soloists, has given lectures and held seminars and workshops at universities in Europe and the USA.[3][4]
