· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Saïd Mesnaoui a fait ses premières scènes à la fin des années 70, flanqué de son guembri et avec l’intention de promouvoir la musique gnawa. Non seulement son héritage millénaire, mais aussi l’immense liberté qu’elle permet, son potentiel créatif. Avant de partir poursuivre sa carrière en France, en 1998, il a été l’un des pionniers de la musique du Maghreb à Montréal ; l’un des artistes à avoir participé aux premières éditions du Festival, aux tout premiers spectacles au Club Balattou. Au fil des ans, il a exploré les rythmes ghiwane, sahraoui, berbère et gnawa, a ouvert le dialogue avec le rock, le reggae, le blues ou le jazz, sans jamais sacrifier l’authenticité.

His guembri always at the ready, Saïd Mesnaoui began performing towards the end of the 1970s, determined to promote gnawa music, not only by sharing its thousand-year-old heritage but revealing its creative potential and the immense freedom it allows for. Before heading to France in 1998 to continue pursuing his musical career there, Mesnaoui was among the first musicians to introduce North African music to Montreal, where he participated in the earliest editions of Festival Nuits d’Afrique and performed some of the first shows ever to be presented at Club Balattou. Over the years, he has explored a variety of music styles, such as ghiwane, Sahraoui, berber and, of course, gnawa, incorporating their rhythms into rock, blues and jazz without ever compromising their authenticity.
