Khomsa is the third studio album by Tunisian oud player Anouar Brahem, recorded in September 1994 and released on ECM the following year. The septet features accordionist Richard Galliano, pianist François Couturier, saxophonist Jean Marc Larché, violinist Béchir Selmi and rhythm section Palle Danielsson and Jon Christensen.[1]
The AllMusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3 stars calling it "a beautiful contemporary statement reflecting the cinematic forms Brahem loves, mixed with European classical and improvisational sensibilities, professionally rendered, and well within the tradition of world jazz and the clean ECM concept."[2]
