Journey to the Centre of an Egg is an album by the Lebanese oud player Rabih Abou-Khalil with German pianist Joachim Kühn and percussionist Jarrod Cagwin which was recorded in Germany in 2004 and released on the Enja label the following year.

[1] All About Jazz said "Working with Rabih Abou-Khalil is tricky business since he incorporates such a wide range of styles into his music.

He doesn't just adapt the oud to a jazz context, he warps and stretches the fabric of improvisation and composition to incorporate a variety of Mediterranean influences.

The record sounds unusually warm and crisp, which you can really appreciate when you pay close attention—which is generally a good idea anyway, if you want to get the most out of this intelligent, involving multicultural music".

[2] Jim Santella observed "Journey to the Centre of an Egg shifts to various parts of the globe, combining mainstream jazz with world music.
