A story of love and gratitude, light and darkness Shiraz, Dhafer Youssef's first ACT album as leader, is a deeply felt story of love and gratitude, light and darkness. The songs of the Tunisian oud player and singer are even more intimate than before—because this is a personal story. The album is dedicated to his wife Shiraz Fradi, their close relationship, and their eventful journey together. The pieces are infused with the energy of countless encounters and discoveries from Dhafer Youssef's decades-long musical journey, while at the same time marked by tender humility for the here and now.
