Montreal Arab World Festival | Nesraf, a Dive Into Algerian Chaâbi Nights

Interview by Keithy Antoine
Genres and styles : Chaâbi

Additional Information

Chaâbi is a song form born in Algeria at the beginning of the previous century, an extrapolation of the Arabo-Andalusian legacy that has had a singular trajectory beyond Algeria. Now considered a consecrated form, the Nesraf group is arousing nostalgia among its fans, as well as a renewed interest in these tunes that have become mythical in the Maghreb and the Middle East. That’s why Keithy Antoine conducted this interview with Nassim Gadouche of Nesraf for PAN M 360.

As part of the FMA, Nesraf performs on November 8 at Salle Claude-Léveillée, PDA. Tickets and info here.
