Khaled Kurbeh is a Berlin-based musician and composer who describes his practice as muhawalāt [attempts] and hawāmesh [sonic footnotes]. He experiments with variations, maqām, extended improvisation and conflicting rhythms by layering fragments of piano, buzuq and field recordings. He has released albums on Research Records and !K7 Music imprint Between Buttons.

Khaled’s performance is supported by Research Records and Goethe-Institut.
