Mamar is a global-jazz ensemble based in the Netherlands, featuring musicians from the U.S., Turkey, Italy, Syria, and the Netherlands. Their music fuses
cinematic textures, Middle Eastern folk traditions, and jazz—creating soundscapes that evoke desert winds, mountain peaks, and quiet inner worlds.

Mamar’s compositions merge elements of classical and traditional Makam music with contemporary harmonic structures.

All five members are accomplished musicians with a strong foundation in jazz and Arabic music traditions. They met while studying at Codarts Conservatory in Rotterdam, where they all graduated with high honors.

Their debut album, also titled Mamar— meaning “aisle” or “pathway”—reflects a journey through change, grief, and transformation. The music invites
listeners to slow down and reconnect with stillness and emotional depth in a chaotic world.
