MaDaBa
The city of mosaics
مَاْدَبَا

MaDaBa is a new trio born in 2023 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
MaDaBa’s original compositions blend the language of Middle Eastern Maqam with contemporary jazz, creating a vibrant improvisational world.

Inspired by an ancient town in the Levant called "The City of Mosaics," MaDaBa's name reflects the trio's passion for combining the past and present, resulting in a meeting point between the Orient and Occident.
