Long attracted by Indian music, Catherine Braslavsky has pursued research in ancient music (Jewish, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Greek and early Christian), and contemporary musical traditions. In 1991, she began to work with Joseph Rowe and Thierry Renard. After several years of research, they performed their first major concerts in 1994, recording their first album "Alma Anima" as well. Since then she has concertized extensively in France, and has performed several concerts in the U.S. She has also performed and composed music for the theater, collaborating with Alain Kremski and Joseph Rowe in the highly acclaimed production "L'Ombre de Lumičre", based on the music and texts of Hildegard of Bingen. She also collaborated with Kremski in "Musiques Rares," and with Joseph Rowe in the "Credo" project, as well as the recent performance piece "From Jerusalem to Cordoba", in 2001.
Joseph Rowe studied classical guitar in the U.S., and then classical Middle Eastern oud with Hamza El Din, a master whose unique marriage of voice and oud, and of Nubian and Arab influences. He has performed several times onstage with Hamza, notably in a concert with the Grateful Dead in San Francisco. He also concertized extensively with other Arab, Persian, and African musicians, as well as with medieval groups. During extensive travels in Africa, he learned and performed with musicians from the Congo (percussion, flute), and with Moroccan sufis (percussion, voice, oud), as well as with Afro-Brazilian percussionists and healers.
