Michael Pignéguy:

“With performances around the globe, including the Lincoln Center in New York and prestigious venues in the Middle East and Australia and Asia."

The Awakenings Ensemble has established itself as a leader in cross-cultural musical collaborations. Their music combines Oriental rhythms with modern jazz influences, creating an intricate soundscape that speaks to the diversity of its members and their experiences.”

The Awakenings Ensemble, an internationally acclaimed group led by Australian drummer and composer Michael Pignéguy, is set to showcase the powerful role that cultural diversity plays in fostering healing and understanding. Drawing on musical traditions from Turkey, the Middle East, and Persia, the Ensemble weaves together a

rich tapestry of sound that transcends borders and brings together cultures through the universal language of music.

From Istanbul to Pakistan, the Awakenings Ensemble takes audiences on a journey that explores the deep emotional and spiritual connections that can be achieved through the fusion of cultural influences. The Awakenings Ensemble’s performances highlight how shared musical traditions can serve as bridges between cultures, promoting unity in a world that often feels

divided.

SPEAK | The Awakenings Ensemble

"Michael's music is infused by the sights and sounds of the region, reflected

in rhythms, melodies and chords redolent of exotic voyages and movie

scores. 'Street Dance' ('Tahrir') is a riotous assembly of sound launched

with plangent chords on keyboards and horns, rumbling toms and high

wailing sax summoning the spirit of the souk.

— DAVID CUSWORTH, The West Australian

 

“The Awakenings Ensemble's music is moody atmospheric and almost

cinematic.

"

— KARIM SULTAN, Katara Arts Centre Director

 

“It was truly one of the most sensational and creative performances we’ve

seen this year.

”

— GEORGE NASRA, The Peninsula Newspaper, Qatar

 

DUALITY | Michael Pignéguy &amp; The Awakenings Ensemble

brilliance at the drum kit.

”

— ERIC MYERS, Weekend Australian

 

“Other highlights [of the Fremantle International Jazz Festival] were Perth

of Western Australia.

”

— STAFF WRITER, All About Jazz
