Festival international Nuits d’Afrique : Elida Almeida à l’esplanade Tranquille

Sun 19 Jul 2026 • 07:00 pm Africa / folklore
Esplanade tranquille - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Elida Almeida « revendique la modernité du folklore de son archipel, qu’elle électrise et porte avec une sensualité enjouée » (Télérama, 2023). Lauréate du Prix Découverte RFI en 2015, elle est résolument tournée vers la lumière. Elle évoque le quotidien de son pays et fait danser avec sincérité l’âme capverdienne sur les rythmes ardents et festifs du funaná, du batuque et du tabanka, qu’elle revisite avec des sonorités urbaines tout en préservant leur histoire. Également membre du collectif Cesária Évora Orchestra, elle perpétue l’héritage de la Diva aux pieds nus, même si elle n’en partage pas la mélancolie. Son nouvel album Spedju, intime et introspectif, inscrit sa voix dans la grande lignée capverdienne.

Elida Almeida “celebrates the modern appeal of her archipelago’s folklore, which she brings to life and embodies with a playful sensuality,” (Télérama, 2023). Winner of the 2015 Prix Découverte RFI, she is definitely turned towards the limelight. With heartfelt sincerity, she conjures up images of Cape Verdean life, bringing her country’s spirit alive with fiery and festive funaná, batuque and tabanka rhythms, which she reimagines with urban flair, while preserving their roots. Also a member of the Cesária Évora Orchestra, Elida upholds the legacy of the “barefoot diva,” even if she does not quite share the melancholy. Her new album, Spedju, intimate and introspective, places her voice firmly in the great Cape Verdean tradition.

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
