Hand-skewered, spice-driven kebabs from Istanbul to Delhi — a journey across fire and flavor.

Called a “brilliant, fearless” clarinetist by The New York Times, Ismail Lumanovski brings his explosive sound to Meze Kebab for one unforgettable night.

​

Best known as the leader of the New York Gypsy All-Stars, Lumanovski has built an international following with his exhilarating blend of Balkan rhythms, Turkish and Mediterranean traditions, jazz improvisation, and virtuosic clarinet playing.

​

His career has taken him from Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center to Jazz at Lincoln Center, with collaborations spanning celebrated artists including Al Di Meola, Ibrahim Maalouf, Keyhan Kalhor, and Michael League.

​

Expect fast-moving rhythms, soaring clarinet, spontaneous improvisation, and the kind of energy that makes it hard to stay still.
