- Dhafer Youssef (* 1967 in Téboulba; mit vollem Namen Dhafer bin Youssef bin Tahar Maarref) ist ein tunesischer Jazzmusiker. Dhafer bildete sich autodidaktisch als Oud-Spieler aus. 1989 wanderte er nach Österreich aus, wo er zunächst als Tellerwäscher in Graz, später in Wien lebte. Dort lernte er den Geiger Anton Burger kennen, mit dem er einige Theatermusiken produzierte, und bekam Kontakt zur Jazzszene. Er arbeitete zunächst mit Musikern wie Carlo Rizzo, Nguyên Lê, Paolo Fresu und Iva Bittová, später auch mit Bill Laswell, Nils Petter Molvaer, Bugge Wesseltoft, Eivind Aarset, Markus Stockhausen, Gilad Atzmon, Jack DeJohnette und mit Wolfgang Muthspiel, mit dem er 2007 das Duo-Album Glow vorlegte. Seit 2002 lebt er in Paris.
- Dhafer Youssef, de son vrai nom Dhafer bin Youssef bin Tahar Maarref, né le 19 novembre 1967 à Téboulba, est un compositeur, chanteur et oudiste tunisien. Il entame sa carrière musicale dès l'âge de dix ans en chantant à l'occasion de mariages dans son village natal. Remarqué pour la qualité de sa voix, il acquiert une certaine notoriété au niveau local et se voit invité plusieurs fois sur Radio Monastir. Il s'installe à Vienne entre 1989 et 1999 et vit depuis à Paris. Sa musique est nourrie de traditions soufies, de lyrisme arabe, d'influences multiculturelles et d'une instrumentation puisée dans le jazz et l'improvisation. Cette influence s'est faite sentir depuis son premier opus où il joue dans son propre groupe baptisé Ziryab, du nom du célèbre musicien andalou, puis dans son deuxième trois-titre où il s'illustre par sa vocalisation, notamment sur le morceau El Hobb el Hindi (L'Amour indien), ainsi que dans un album composé pour une pièce de théâtre à Vienne; on en retiendra notamment le titre Galbi ala Galbak, un hymne à sa mère. Parmi ses collaborations notables figure des duos avec Paolo Fresu, Nguyên Lê, Bugge Wesseltoft, Omar Sosa, etc.
- Dhafer Youssef è nato a Teboulba, in Tunisia, ed ha vissuto e lavorato in diversi paesi d'Europa fin dal 1990. Durante questo periodo ha avuto la possibilità di esibirsi in Austria, Francia, Germania, Svizzera, Regno Unito, Italia (dove ha avuto occasione di suonare con personaggi del calibro di Markus Stockhausen e Paolo Fresu) nonché nella natia Tunisia, dove cominciò a cantare all'età di 5 anni. Le radici della musica di Dhafer Youssef affondano nella tradizione Sufi e nella musica mistica, tuttavia egli è sempre stato aperto alla musica di altre culture e al jazz. Dhafer Yussef costituisce una delle espressioni più importanti sulla scena musicale attraverso il suono dell'oud, il liuto arabo dal quale riesce a trarre composizioni complesse improntate alla tradizione araba. Il suo primo album Malak incorpora il lirismo arabo, la potenza ritmica, la forza della visione e l'improvvisazione contaminata da influenze multiculturale e jazzistiche; in questo modo Dhafer Youssef ha aperto la strada ad una nuova modalità di apprezzare le contaminazioni Oriente-Occidente. I lavori di Dhafer Youssef hanno avuto nomine per importanti premi. Con il suo gruppo ha registrato quattro album. È stato artista ospite del musicista jazz norvegese Bugge Wesseltoft nell'album FiLM iNG.
