The music has been a family tradition. Abaji began playing guitar at the age of 11, and soon picked up other instruments as well as the clarinet, percussions, the oud, the bouzouki and flutes collected during his travels. Later, the synthesis of these instruments combined with a variety of musical passions: Indian Music, Eastern and the blues. His guitar playing with a bow still creates sensation during festivals. In 1996, he composed his first album “Paris-Beirut”, singing in Arabic, French and English. The musical encounters lead Abaji to the 5 continents: the Zulus of Durban, South Africa, the Indians of Northem Mexico, the Gnawas of Morocco, the Qawwals of Lahore, Pakistan.
