Moktar Gania & Gnawa Soul au Club Balattou

Thu 28 Jul 2022 • 09:00 pm Gnawa
Club Balattou - Montreal 10 $
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

En digne héritier de la dynastie Gania qui a tant compté dans la culture du Maroc, Maâlem Moktar Gania d’Essaouira s’impose aujourd’hui comme un acteur essentiel de la musique Gnaoua.

Initié par ces piliers de la tradition Gnaouie que furent son père Boubker et son frère Mahmoud, le jeune Moktar s ‘est produit dans le monde entier avec la famille Gania, mais ensuite aussi avec Randy Weston, Bill Laswell, Pharoah Sanders, Carlos Santana et bien d’autres … 

La rencontre entre le Maâlem Moktar Gania (frère cadet de l’incontournable et regretté maître Mahmoud Gania) et le groupe Gnawa Soul a permis de créer à Essaouira un style novateur à la frontière de l’esprit Gnawa, des grandes mélodies orientales du Maghreb et des vibrations de la culture Ouest Africaine.

Moktar Gania et Gnawa Soul apparaissent comme les nouveaux ambassadeurs d’une musique reliant le Maghreb et l’Afrique de l’Ouest célébrant les noces du corps et de l’esprit qui délivrent l’âme, que ce soient à travers des balades dédiées à l’élémentaire cosmique ou des titres rythmiques issus de la transe spirituelle.
Leur album GNAWA SOUL est sorti en mai 2022 sous l’étiquette Disques Nuits d’Afrique, en collaboration avec Nomad Roots.

As a worthy heir of the Gania dynasty that has counted so much in the culture of Morocco, Maâlem Moktar Gania from Essaouira is today an essential actor of Gnaoua music.

Initiated by these pillars of the Gnaouie tradition that were his father Boubker and his brother Mahmoud, the young Moktar performed all over the world with the Gania family, but then also with Randy Weston, Bill Laswell, Pharoah Sanders, Carlos Santana and many others …

The meeting between Maâlem Moktar Gania (younger brother of the unavoidable and late master Mahmoud Gania) and the group Gnawa Soul has created in Essaouira an innovative style at the border of the Gnawa spirit, the great oriental melodies of the Maghreb and the vibrations of the West African culture.


Their album GNAWA SOUL was released in May 2022 under the label Disques Nuits d’Afrique, in collaboration with Nomad Roots.
