At the age of twenty-two, he recorded his first album,&nbsp;<em>Gulistan, Jardin des Roses<\/em>, in Athens and Marseille, together with&nbsp;<strong>Ross Daly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of&nbsp;<strong>Lebanese origin<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>Rami Khalif\u00e9<\/strong>&nbsp;was born amid the turmoil of the&nbsp;<strong>Lebanese civil war in Beirut<\/strong>. Although he is best known for his&nbsp;<strong>reinterpretation of classical music<\/strong>, he has performed as a soloist alongside some of the world&#8217;s most prestigious orchestras, including the&nbsp;<strong>Globalis Orchestra, the Qatar Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra<\/strong>. Through a style that is as&nbsp;<strong>eclectic as it is bold<\/strong>, Rami has established himself as one of the&nbsp;<strong>most influential young composers of the 21st century<\/strong>. His career has also led him to compose&nbsp;<strong>soundtracks for films and documentaries<\/strong>. The&nbsp;<strong>Daily Star<\/strong>&nbsp;described him as&nbsp;<em>&#8220;a musician of extreme caliber and pure expression&#8230; a welcome experimental deviation from the norm in today\u2019s relatively conformist world of classical composition.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Born into a family of artists,&nbsp;<strong>Albanian cellist and composer Redi Hasa<\/strong>&nbsp;began studying the&nbsp;<strong>cello at the age of seven<\/strong>. His first solo album,&nbsp;<em>The Stolen Cello<\/em>, saw him confront the instrument on an intimate level, establishing a&nbsp;<strong>deep connection<\/strong>&nbsp;that emerges in every track of the record. His second studio album,&nbsp;<em>My Nirvana<\/em>, explores a&nbsp;<strong>journey of discovery and introspection<\/strong>&nbsp;into the&nbsp;<strong>&#8220;grunge heart&#8221;<\/strong>&nbsp;of his musical approach, paying tribute to a band that has profoundly influenced him. Throughout his career, he has collaborated with&nbsp;<strong>Ko\u010dani Orkestar, Boban Markovi\u0107, Bobby McFerrin, Paolo Fresu<\/strong>, and since&nbsp;<strong>2012, he has been a member of Ludovico Einaudi&#8217;s band<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14220,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"inline_featured_image":false},"class_list":["post-14091","record","type-record","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>L&#039;Antidote - Ponderosa<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ponderosa.it\/en\/record\/lantidote\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"L&#039;Antidote - Ponderosa\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Iranian-born&nbsp;percussionist&nbsp;Bijan Chemirani&nbsp;learned to play the&nbsp;zarb&nbsp;from his father,&nbsp;Djamchid Chemirani, and his brother,&nbsp;Keyvan.
