AHMAD COMPAORÉ & FRIENDS [CANCELLED] (01/12/2012) 21:00
Concert cancelled due to an administrative closure of the Paradox.
On the border between white Africa and black Africa, the repertoire devised by the trio reflects the interbreeding which occured over the centuries between oriental music from Egypt and West Africa: it performs compositions with spellbinding rhythms that sway between jazz fusion, blues rock and afrobeat. A brilliant and lively music at the crossroads between Oum Kalthoum and Ali Farka Touré, delivering here and there some hints of reggae and techno beats.
Ahmad Compaoré: drums, percussions
Jeff Kellner : guitar
Sylvain Terminiello: electric bass
