Jazz / World Music / African / Worldbeat / World Fusion

Morocco's leading young Gnawa musician plays ancient African music of healing and trance, joined by world class jazz and new music improvisers. This is world fusion's true sound. A young, hip Gnawa sintir player here combines his expertise with a multi-national percussionist, a European ney player, and veteran free jazzer Don Cherry's pocket trumpet to create a soundscape that one cannot escape from. All this is done in New York City. The ney work here is perhaps the greatest contribution. The light tones wrap around all other features of the music when Richard Horowitz is playing to envelope the listener.
