Nuits d’Afrique : Meiway & Le Zo Gang

Sun 23 Jul 2023 • 09:30 pm Zoblazo
Scène TD-Radio-Canada - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Son spectacle en clôture des Nuits d’Afrique 2016 est resté dans les annales comme l’un des plus incandescents jamais vus. Sortez vos mouchoirs blancs, accessoire essentiel pour danser le Zoblazo, brassage percussif des rythmes folkloriques du sud de la Côte d’Ivoire habillés de sons modernes, un style musical qu’il a inventé il y a maintenant plus de 3 décennies: le showman remet ça cette année avec toute l’impertinence, l’énergie et l’humour qu’on lui connaît! “Certes, le maître du zoblazo est un musicien touche-à-tout qui soigne son look et ses chorégraphies. Mais il s’est avant tout imposé sur le long terme grâce à une stratégie de caméléon, en se fondant dans toutes les modes musicales” (Jeune Afrique, 2020). Aucun doute, le Parterre du Quartier des spectacles va prendre des airs de bal poussière!

In 2016, Meiway closed Festival Nuits d’Afrique with a concert that is still remembered as one of the most exhilarating shows ever. So, get out your white handkerchiefs—an essential accessory when dancing to Zoblazo, the musical style that he developed over 30 years ago by blending rhythms from across Côte d’Ivoire and incorporating folkloric elements with a modern twist. This natural showman will be returning again this year with that same level audacity, energy and humour for which he is famous. “To be sure, the father of Zoblazo is a versatile musician with impeccable style and choreographies. But, above all, he has made a name for himself thanks to his chameleonic strategy of blending with any musical style” (Jeune Afrique, 2020).  The Parterre du Quartier des spectacle is guaranteed to be hopping this summer!

GRATUIT!
