Lekhfa

Tamer Abu Ghazaleh / Maryam Saleh / Maurice Louca

Une chanteuse charismatique, un virtuose du oud et un génie touche-à-tout de la musique électronique se retrouvent pour un hommage bien personnel au chaâbi égyptien.

Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca et Tamer Abu Ghazaleh, sont des figures de proue du milieu avant-gardiste de la scène arabe actuelle. Avec Lekhfa, ils proposent une musique sans compromis, à la fois belle et dérangeante. Sur des mélodies ciselées avec la délicate intensité électro de Maurice, Maryam et Tamer chantent une sélection des poèmes dystopiques de leur contemporain Mido Zoheir, l’un des poètes égyptiens les plus talentueux de sa génération.

Maryam Saleh, Maurice Louca and Tamer Abu Ghazaleh, names that have turned heads in alternative Arabic music with solo albums and conspicuous collaborations.
