OASIS I.Olivier / R.Abbasi / M. Sarin

FACE Foundation and the Cultural Services of the French Embassy present an exceptional concert with international musicians at La Maison Française with French catering in Washington DC.

"Genre-blending guitarist Rez Abbasi and harpist Isabelle Olivier joyfully combine forces on OASIS. Leading from traditional repertoire to time-and space tripping avant-garde, the musicians fuse groove and improvisation, and perform with a kind of measured steadiness that only could be delivered by their highly skilled hands... Warm, intimate and challenging all at once, OASIS is a natural pairing of two pros making beautiful music as a trio with Michael Sarin".
