Sanaa Marahati

Sanaa Marahati is one of the last interpreters of the classic Malhoun style from Morocco. The Moroccan singer is classically trained and has devoted her musical life to the Malhoun style, an ancient Moroccan-Arabic tradition. They are poetic life songs about themes such as love and spirituality. The Amsterdams Andalusisch Orkest specializes in the diverse repertoire from the Maghreb, the northwestern part of Africa. Musical director Abderrahim Semlali grew up in the historic center of Fès, where his parents applied the Malhoun-style storytelling in everyday life. As a child he let himself be carried away by the stories, his love for music stems from that time.
