Jaqamaz
- Constituted : 01/07/2023
What would it sound like if we mixed some inspiration from
traditional music with the abstract textures of contemporary
music? Or if we sprinkle the colorful harmony of jazz with the
burning inflections of Arabic maqâms ?
Jaqâmaz is a very recent group of five musicians, it is a
crossroad between five worlds. First of all we seek to combine
all the richness that our different cultures can provide in order
to create something new. Therefore each member has a great
responsibility inside the group. Everyone has to share his
influence to find the right balance with others. If we win this
bet, this music might open doors. To those who seems familiar
with the swing and the blues chords, the sound of the Ud could
wake up their desire to see beyond the Mediterranean Sea? To
those who sing with plaisir the orchestral melodies, their body
will irresistibly be attracted by the modern grooves.
In short, everything is gathered to touch various sensibilities
and merge them into new horizons.
