ARABO-ANDALOUSIAN REPERTOIRE

With Fouad DIDI

Born in Tlemcen in Algeria, Fouad Didi has been singing, as well as playing the violin and oud, since childhood. He studied the repertoires and techniques of the great masters of his time, who encouraged him in his thirst for learning and passed their knowledge onto him. He teaches at the Conservatoire of Toulon and Aubagne and the City of Music of Marseille, where he gives training, master-classes and workshops on Arabo-Andalousian music.

Teaching of the classical repertoire will be based on the oral tradition (notes will be given) and phonetically transcribed songs. The repertoire will follow two modes: ZIidane, Raml el Laya et Sahli.
