La jeune virtuose aux doigts d’or, Chaima Gaddour, nous présente le qanoun sous un jour radicalement nouveau. Cet instrument, héritier des anciennes harpes mésopotamiennes, a voyagé à travers les siècles et les cultures, de Bagdad à l’Andalousie, pour devenir la pierre angulaire des orchestres classiques orientaux. Ses 78 cordes en font l’architecte mélodique des maqams.
Le maniant avec dextérité, Chaima Gaddour transforme cet instrument en une palette émotionnelle vibrante où se rencontrent la sagesse ancestrale et l’audace contemporaine. Elle n’interprète pas simplement la musique, elle la respire, la vit et la réinvente.
Son talent rare transcende la technique ; elle ose, improvise, et fait dialoguer les répertoires avec une liberté qui déjoue toutes les attentes. Sous ses doigts, le qanoun chante, pleure, danse et nous emporte, nous offrant un moment musical rare où la jeunesse rencontre l’éternité.

The young virtuoso Chaima Gaddour reveals the qanun in a radically renewed light. Descended from the ancient harps of Mesopotamia, this instrument has journeyed across centuries and civilizations, from Baghdad to al-Andalus, to become the melodic cornerstone of classical Oriental ensembles. Its seventy-eight strings construct the very architecture of the maqams, shaping the modal frameworks of Middle Eastern music.
In Gaddour’s hands, the qanun becomes a vibrant emotional palette where ancestral wisdom meets contemporary audacity. She does not merely perform music; she breathes it, lives it, and reinvents it. Her artistry transcends technical mastery: she dares, she improvises, she initiates dialogues between repertoires with a freedom that overturns all expectations.
Through her performance, the qanun ceases to be a static instrument and instead emerges as a living voice, singing, lamenting, dancing, carrying listeners into a rare musical moment where youth encounters eternity.

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
