Amr Mdah

Amr Mdah, born in Majdal Shams in the occupied Golan Heights, is a saxophonist and composer whose music brings together the worlds of jazz and Arabic traditions. His sound is defined by a rare sensitivity: instead of forcing styles together, he uncovers the common roots between East and West, building a rich and immersive soundscape.

Through inventive arrangements and a unique blend of instruments, Amr allows the saxophone to move fluidly between Arabic melodies and jazz harmonies, building a rich and immersive soundscape. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Jazz Performance and a master’s in Contemporary Improvisation from the Jerusalem Academy of Music and Dance. Having performed on stages locally and internationally, Mdah now focuses on his own projects, composing music that combines intricate detail with rhythm and groove. His performances invite listeners into an experience that is soulful, original, and alive.
