- Beyond the fusion between Flamenco and Arabic-Andalusian music, Mohamed Akel seeks to recreate historically the music played in the Nazari Kingdom of Granada by Spanish-Muslims musicians and their Christian colleagues during musical evenings or “leilas”.
- A concert guitarist accompanied by both a singer and a dancer are the flamenco team, sharing the spotlight with their Moroccan colleagues playing violins, lute, “darbuka”, “tar”or “qanún accompanied by a belly dancer.
- This fusion shows us the undeniable relationship between both cultures and musics. In short, 7 artists well-known both in Marroco and Spain.
