" A journey "
Musical piece
Does the musical instrument only speak the musical language of the country from which it comes? Or can he speak all the languages in the world?Here the artist takes the challenge of playing “maqam” or traditional Moroccan sounds with an electric guitar, in a back and forth movement between the Moroccan and modern Western musical universes.The musical piece tells us the journey of a Moroccan who crosses Morocco from north to south and discovers the many treasures of a particularly rich heritage.
