Embryo and Yassen Mahgoub Live at Bibliotheca Alexandrina, Alexandria

Organised in cooperation with Goethe-Institut Alexandria

Embryo is a unique music collective from Munich that combines Krautrock, Jazz, free improvisation, European and non-European rhythms and sounds like no other. Embryo have been around since 1969 and transcend generations, genres and borders. They have played with Mal Waldron, Okay Temiz, Fela Kuti, Charlie Mariano and many others.
Marja Burchard, daughter of founder Christian Burchard, took over the band she grew up in in 2015. Since then, Embryo has lived on with her, always searching for new sounds, rhythms and ideas from those who think differently.
Yassen Mahgoub is an Alexandrian singer, songwriter, music director and music producer. He started his musical career in 2010 when he founded his former band “Qarar Ezala”. Since then, Yassen has collaborated with several musicians from different musical backgrounds and genres, as he has a special interest in improvisation and fusion. Yassen recently won the 2024 State Promotion Award for composing music.
