Tangier

Join us every afternoon for a musical community journey with Radio Alhara, broadcasting live from Bethlehem.

A listening session proposed by artist Abdellah M. Hassak to navigate a sound cartography of water in Morocco and beyond.

The first panel talk opens on the city of Tangier! Conversation proposed by Think Tanger, an innovative cultural organization in dialogue with Port Cities, a project that extends thinking on port cities and maritime spaces beyond the Mediterranean.

The vibrant duo from Aita electro make their Tangier debut in a concert that sets the tone for the festival! Aïta Mon Amour is a duo made up of Widad Mjama and Khalil EPI . This project is the fruit of Widad's fascination with the ancestral Moroccan art of the Aïta, a popular musical genre rooted in the Moroccan countryside and sung by the Chikhates, the women guardians of a centuries-old tradition. Aïta, meaning 'cry' or 'call' in Moroccan dialect Arabic, embodies both the call of the warriors and the lament of love. This contemporary electronic musical project explores this rich tradition dating back to the 12th century. Aïta Mon Amour honors this oral art form with a desire to build bridges between past and present, to deconstruct the perceptions that define the genre, and to make it resonate in the contemporary, digital age.

GJ LEITH and GBW9 export the Marrakchia avant-garde with their G2G evening. G2G (GET 2GETHER) is a proposal initiated by a trio made up of GJ LEITH, GBW9 and Alia Belgsir since the first artistic residencies organized by the collective as part of the Khial Nkhel project. They offer the dj booth to 212 Thug, a rising star on the Moroccan scene, and Ninafterdark, a talented Italian artist and DJ with an elusive style.

Inspired by "Gyotaku", an ancient Japanese technique for reproducing fish prints on materials such as paper or fabric, this workshop led by Abderrahim Benatabou aims to raise awareness of the fragile existence of these species.
