Touria Hadraoui - Simon Nabatov Duo
Touria Hadraoui is
a known Moroccan singer, essayist, women's rights activist
and publicist. Her musical activities concentrate on
authentic interpretations of the Arab-Andalusian music, as
well as the ancient (going back to the 14th century) Malhoun
songs. Remarkably enough, Touria was the first woman ever to
perform Malhoun, the genre otherwise traditionally reserved
exclusively for men. In addition, she
participates in a number of "cross-over" projects with
diverse musicians of the European scene - like Louis Sclavis
or Corrie van Binsbergen. In February-March
of 2007 Touria Hadraoui and Simon Nabatov embarked together
on the project made possible by the Goethe-Institut in
Rabat, involving intense rehearsal-immersion phase, followed
by 3 concerts. The "premiere"
concert in the Moroccan capital drew a huge interest both
from the listeners of all walks of life and the media - the
TV report was shown in nearly 40 countries... The duo continues
to enjoy sporadic musical encounters - several concerts in
Bordeaux in 2008, for example. It will perform 3 concerts in
Belgium beginning of March as a part of the "8 women before
the March 8th" project.
