Biography

http://www.tonimakhoul.com

A few years ago, dance floors, radios and millions of iPods were going crazy, seeming to celebrate the madness of getting caught in a “Bad Romance.” Fortunately, in a world where so many have given in to hopelessness and bitterness, there are still those who dare to dream of greater things and brighter days. Consider Toni Makhoul’s masterful new collection Eternal Love the uplifting instrumental antidote to the cynicism of Lady GaGa’s #1 hit. The dynamic 16 track set is the follow-up to his well received, similarly beautiful 2007 debut Letter To My Love.

Having experienced the beauty and enduring force of true love, the Lebanese born and based composer and multi-instrumentalist shares the intimacy of a world, he says, “that comes alive in music and love.” Makhoul captures our collective romantic imagination on melodic and flowing, lushly arranged tunes that reflect the multitude of emotions love entails—sadness, joy, the rapture of new love and the heartbreak of broken dreams and expectations. Pondering the mystery and magic of love, Makhoul needs no words to say what our hearts tells us is true: it’s all worth it.
Indicative of the international appeal of his instrumental music, Makhoul states his goal for
the music of Eternal Love simply—but in five different languages—in the album’s liner
notes: “Hoping that my music will relieve you when you feel tired and be your companion while you are in a comfortable dreamy corner with the one you love.” With the help of video director Mansour Rahbani, the artist also brings those hopes to life on the popular clip of the title track, which has aired on many TV stations and is on YouTube.
