TOURIA HADRAOUI

Melhoun and soufi songs from Morocco
(MOROCCO, 2nd part)

Touria Hadraoui : song
Tarik Hassouni : violin
Meinrad Kneer : bass
Mustapha Rihani: flute

Touria Hadraoui has been singing since childhood, but an encounter with a melhoun master changed her life. She has dedicated herself to this traditional singing, in addition to collecting Sufi songs from Northern Morocco, and studying and performing Arabo-Andalousian music. Her concerts often involve collaborations with artists from other cultures, but she will focus on her own musical heritage during her Geneva concert.
