Listen to the title track from Duets for Abdelrazik, a musical collaboration
between celebrated jazz saxophonist Matana Roberts and pianist/community
activist Stefan Christoff.

Recorded in 2010 at Hotel2Tango studios in Montreal, on a freezing winter
morning by Thierry Amar, this duet sparked a creative process leading to the
Duets for Abdelrazik album, released on 06/2012 at the Suoni per il Popolo.

Duets for Abdelrazik features the artistic work of community-driven musicians
in Montreal, for a series of beautiful collective compositions, that express
musical solidarity with the struggle of Abousfian Abdelrazik for justice,
attempting to speak artistically to the incredible humanity of Abdelrazik's
struggle against government-driven injustice, torture and imprisonment without
trial.
