Nuits d’Afrique : Boulila and Friends au Club Balattou

Wed 12 Jul 2023 • 08:30 pm Gnawa
Club Balattou - Montréal 15$
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Le Gnawa. Un rite, une musique, des danses. Un art inscrit au patrimoine immatériel de l’humanité de l’Unesco. La mémoire ancestrale, mystique, d’une ascendance d’Afrique sub-saharienne. Profondément ancrée dans la tradition, portée par les vibrations graves des cordes du guembri et le son claquant des karkabous, amplifiés par des répétitions entêtantes, ferment d’une transe libératrice, la musique de Boulila, lauréat de la 14e édition des Syli d’or de la musique du monde, renouvelle les codes de ce genre à la fois festif et thérapeutique par une instrumentation alliant guitare, saxophone, basse, piano et batterie, révélant l’africanité des musiques populaires occidentales.

Gnawa. Ritual, music, dance. Inscribed on UNESCO’s Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Gnawa represents the mystical, ancestral memory of sub-Saharan Africa. Deeply rooted in tradition, it is carried on the waves of the guembri’s bass tones and the percussive clacking of the qraqeb, and amplified by liberating trance-inducing rhythms that are both festive and healing. Winner of the 2020 Syli d’or de la Musique du Monde Award, Boulila reinvigorates the Gnawa genre with a combination of guitar, sax, bass, piano and drums, revealing the African spirit of Western popular music.
