Munir Bachir (1930-1997) was born in Mosul (Iraq), into a long established family of musicians. His father taught him to play the "ud" at a very young age. Later, he completed a doctorate of musicology in Budapest. Faithful to the letter and the spirit of traditional Arab music, Munir Bachir improvised from fully authenticated sources. As much creator as performer, his music was forever evolving, never repetitive.
