The tradition of Gnawa music goes back to a minority from the south-western sub-Saharan region that was enslaved to Morocco centuries ago. Asmâa Hamzaoui and Bnat Timbouktou, outstanding protagonists of the genre, bring this practice into the here and now. Carried by polyrhythmic percussion, the repetitive sound of the gimbri and choral response chants, Hamzaoui's haunting voice unfolds into a purifying force. With their LP Oulad Lghaba, released in spring 2024, Hamzaoui emphasises the spiritual side of Gnawa. In the Gnawa language, however, she also addresses African realities of life and the importance of living in harmony with the environment and in equality.
Unfortunately, the concert had to be cancelled in July for visa reasons.
