Festival du monde Arabe : Le guembri, quand l’ancestral rencontre le futur à l’Espace culturel Kawalees

Fri 14 Nov 2025 • 08:00 pm Gnawa
Espace culturel Kawalees - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Avec Amine Benarqia, le guembri quitte le désert pour voyager à travers le monde, révélant toute la puissance et la profondeur de cet instrument sacré des Gnawa. Plus qu’un simple luth, le guembri devient un véritable orchestre à lui seul, capable de transporter l’auditeur entre les racines ancestrales et les explorations musicales contemporaines. Entre transe mystique et vibrations modernes, il dialogue avec le jazz, l’électronique et des atmosphères organiques, créant un pont unique entre tradition et innovation.
Cette performance invite à une expérience sensorielle immersive où chaque note raconte l’histoire d’un peuple, tout en explorant de nouveaux territoires sonores. Amine Benarqia devient ainsi passeur d’universels, faisant résonner le passé et le futur dans une harmonie vibrante et envoûtante. Une rencontre musicale où l’héritage des Gnawa se transforme en énergie créative, ouverte à toutes les curiosités et émotions.

What if the guembri were to leave the confines of the Sahara to conquer the world? For Amine Benarqia, a free spirit of the world-music scene, this is no longer a question but a sonic prophecy. In his musical laboratory, the sacred instrument of the Gnawa becomes an explorer of new territories, a cosmophile in search of universals.
The guembri, emblematic of the Gnawa tradition, is a three-stringed lute-drum carved from wood and covered with camel skin. Its deep, hypnotic resonance lies at the heart of trance rituals, where rhythm and spirituality intertwine. At once instrument and orchestra, the guembri’s trance-inducing patterns enter into dialogue with jazz, its hypnotic melodies flirt with organic electronica, and its ancestral drones merge seamlessly with atmospheric textures.
Through this encounter, Amine Benarqia offers a sensory experience where the boundaries between tradition and innovation dissolve. The guembri, forever surprising, continues its metamorphosis as both guardian of memory and harbinger of the future.

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
