LES FATMAS DE BELGICA & THE BOHO STRINGS QUARTET

Nomadic Musical encounters - Al-Karavan

The 25 amateur singers of the choir 'Les Fatmas de Belgica' and of the singing studio Al-Karavan that was started in February in De Centrale, have united to let you hear excerpts from the Arab-Andalusian repertory of Morocco in an arrangement for four string instruments.

Two classic universes exploring each other in an unpublished encounter!

With Les Fatmas de Belgica, the participants of the singing workshop Al-Karavan, Laïla Amezian & the Boho Strings Quartet
Arrangements Fabian Fiorini

The Al-Karavan project travels between Brussels and Ghent and settles in De Centrale for a weekend. We present two exceptional musical productions, built around four musical styles. From January to June a series of meetings took place between on the one hand a choir and a classical quartet and on the other hand between eight singers and some musicians from the Belgian jazz and world music scene. The result is a festive double bill that pays tribute to the first generation of Moroccan migrants in Belgium. So come and enjoy the fruits of these fascinating encounters.
