Wikipedia Summary: Bobby Hutcherson was an American jazz vibraphone and marimba player. While not primarily associated with Middle Eastern music, Hutcherson's innovative approach to jazz and his exploration of various world music influences occasionally led him to incorporate elements that could be seen as having connections to Middle Eastern sounds. His use of modal scales and complex rhythms in some compositions shared similarities with certain aspects of Middle Eastern music. Hutcherson's collaborations with diverse musicians throughout his career may have exposed him to various global influences, potentially including Middle Eastern musical concepts. However, any Middle Eastern influences in his music were likely subtle and integrated into his broader jazz vocabulary rather than being a primary focus.
