This is a rare opportunity to sample the versatility and inspirational genius of a veteran maestro.

French-Algerian Bensusan has acquired a host of awards for his unique style of composition, including the AFIM/USA award for Best Instrumental Acoustic Album 2002.

At his Brighton gig, Bensusan will be showcasing his new release, Anthology.

This is a retrospective collection spanning 20 years, seven albums and a lifetime of achievement, as well as including new tracks, such as Albaricoque and the iridescent Lunar Tide.

Category-defying and captivating, all hail Bensusan and his bitter-sweet blend of Brazilian, North African and Celtic-inspired jazz-folk.
