Sahariennes

music

Mauritanie / Algérie / Maroc / Sahara occidental

 

 

Beyond the sand borders and the conflicts, four exceptional Sahrawi singers make their music into a universal language and celebrate their shared cultural heritage and their belief in the possibility of peace. A real challenge supported by their energy, their authenticity and their words as artists. A hymn to sisterhood.

Traditional profane or sacred chants and Berber, Touareg or Gnawa heritage fuel the musical creations of Noura Mint Seymali, a great Mauritanian singer born into a griot family; of the South Algerian diva Souad Asla; of Dighya Mohammed Salem, ambassador of the traditions of the Western Sahara; and of the Moroccan artist Malika Zarra. For this new performance, they are accompanied by renowned instrumentalists Jeiche Ould Chighaly, Mohammed Menni, Anne-Laure Bourget and Mohamed Abdennour. Eveything begins with an unaccompanied chant, which moves from voice to voice with a mere wave of the hand. The magic works immediately. United and powerful, they proudly embrace their condition as Sahrawi woman artists, symbols of dignity, independence and a feminist spirit.
