OPENING CONCERT: MAÂLEM HASSAN BOUSSOU & MAÂLEM MOULAY EL TAYEB DEHBI WITH DUMANLÉ COMPANY, NINO DE LOS REYES, SERGIO MARTINEZ & ILÊ AIYÊ

TRANSTLANTIC BROTHERHOOD SET TO RHYTHM 

Essaouira/Mogador, the city of tradewinds, is open to the world and ready to celebrate all of its influences. Moroccan, African, Hispanic and even trans-Atlantic. The opening concert is the fruit of an exceptional residency and a veritable hymn to mixity, bringing together Maâlems Hassan Boussou and Moulay Tayeb Dehbi with La Compagnie Dumanlé, Nino de Los Reyes, Sergio Martinez & Ilê Aiyê.

The very eclectic Hassan Boussou and his soul-piercing music, and the fiery Moulay Tayeb Dehbi will exchange spiritual notes with their Brazilian alter-egos, the very active Ilê Aiyê. The scenic performances of the Ivorians of La Compagnie Dumanlé will face off with the tempo of Nino de Los Reyes and Sergio Martinez, two of the brightest stars of today’s Flamenco scene. A fusion of cleverly balanced multicoloured influences that reunites Morocco, Ivory Coast, Brazil and Spain in a concert that will surely go down in history.
