This August, Ali introduced the Qanun in its own debut at the Newport Jazz Festival. “Unrivaled unique artist” were the words of Quincy Jones when he invited Ali to the Festival de Peralada (Spain) as part of the Global All~Stars Group while filming a documentary with producer Javier Limon made to showcase cultural music around the globe. Ali has collaborated with Concha Buika and Alejandro Sanz for "Generación Perdida", a benefit for the work of Doctors Without Borders to combat poverty in Africa as well as performing for the royal family of Jordan, and the President of Palestine at the White House.
