Aziz Sahmaoui & University ...
"Here, traditional African music is played like jazz and listened to like rock," warns Aziz Sahmaoui on his official website. Born in Marrakech, the singer, poet and multi-instrumentalist grew up to the sound of the music of the Gnawas, which accompanies the esoteric ritual ceremony of the "lîla," the "night" in Arabic. Its repetitive melodic and rhythmic patterns accompany the initiates into a trance, bringing together the world of spirits and the living for therapeutic purposes. A tradition that Aziz has brilliantly appropriated and reinvented for the past 10 years with his University of Gnawa, unabashedly mixing this Moroccan heritage with Mandingo culture (Cheikh Diallo's kora), jazz and rock sounds, with dance as the only watchword. It must be said that Aziz Sahmaoui has never ceased, for several years, to deconstruct the folkloric image of what is too generically called "world music." With the Orchestre National de Barbès, which he co-founded in 1995, he has proudly carried the Maghrebian colors in a cheerful and unclassifiable musical fusion. In 2005 he continued his experiments with the Zawinul Syndicate until 2007, the year of the death of Joe Zawinul, famous keyboardist of the Miles Davis jazz-fusion period and founder of Weather Report. After three albums and hundreds of concerts around the world, Aziz Sahmaoui continues his research and celebrates in 2021 the 10 years of the University of Gnawa with a "best of" record and a concert at the Africolor Festival. Enter into the trance! Etienne Geremia
