Sons de la mediterrània | | Actualitzat el 08/07/2016 a les 07:00 Recordant Songhai Juan Carmona, Josemi Carmona i Toumani Diabaté obren el Pirineos Sur, que ret homenatge a Ketama El festival Pirineos Sur (http://www.pirineos-sur.es/) , que se celebra cada juliol als pobles aragonesos de Sallent de GÃ llego i Lanuza, arrencarÃ aquest 15 de juliol amb un concert especial: Juan Carmona, Josemi Carmona i Toumani DiabatÃ© recordaran Songhai (Nuevos Medios, 1988), l'Ã lbum que va bastir ponts entre el flamenc i la kora. Ketama, Toumani Diabaté i Danny Thompson Foto: Mario Pacheco Songhai va ser un dels àlbums emblemàtics de Nuevos Medios, el segell que, als anys vuitanta i capitanejat per Mario Pacheco, va injectar aires refrescants al moviment que es va conèixer com a Nuevo flamenco. El treball, en què el grup Ketama es trobava amb el virtuós malià de la kora Toumani Diabaté i amb el contrabaix folkie de l'anglès Danny Thompson, va tenir continuïtat posteriorment amb un segon treball, aquest cop amb el guitarrista José Soto en el lloc de Thompson: Songhai 2 (Nuevos Medios, 1994). El 15 juliol, a l'escenari surant del llac de Lanuza, el festival Pirineos Sur s'inaugurarà recordant aquells discos amb dos dels músics que van formar Ketama -Juan i Josemi Carmona-, Toumani Diabaté i el contrabaix de Javier Colina. El projecte serveix a més per festejar els 25 anys de Pirineos Sur, ja que Ketama va ser el grup que va obrir la primera edició, el 1992, mentre que Toumani Diabaté hi ha protagonitzat alguns dels concerts més celebrats de la seva història. L'any passat, el korista va rebre el Premi Pirineos Sur a la Diversitat Cultural. Ketama Foto: Mario Pacheco Enguany serà el grup Ketama qui rebrà aquest reconeixement, juntament amb José Borrel Doz, el primer aragonès amb síndrome de down que ha escrit un llibre. El premi a Ketama s'ha atorgat per "la seva tasca en la modernització de l'art flamenc i pel seu esforç en l'establiment de vies de comunicació musical entre les cultures hispanes, Àfrica i l'Amèrica Llatina". El premi arribarà pocs dies després de la mort de Juan Habichuela, guitarrista i patriarca -juntament amb el seu germà Pepe Habichuela - de la il·lustre nissaga granadina de músics flamencs d'on van sorgir els Ketama. Presència catalana En aquesta edició del Pirineos Sur també destaquen algunes propostes provinents dels Països Catalans, com ara l'homenatge que el cantaor sabadellenc Duquende farà al guitarrista Paco de Lucía, a qui va acompanyar en llargues gires arreu del món, o el duo d'arrels elèctriques que formen la cantant badalonina Maria Arnal i el guitarrista flixanco Marcel Bagés, l'inclassificable Niño de Elche, el dj brasiler Wagner Pa o la cantant de jota-jazz Marta Casas. https://www.enderrock.cat/noticia/14399/recordant-songhai Pagina 1 de 1.

Contact: [email protected] Journal of Jazz Studies vol. 11, no. 2, pp. 29-77 (2016) Flamenco Jazz: An Analytical Study Peter Manuel Since the 1990s, the hybrid genre of flamenco jazz has emerged as a dynamic and original entity in the realm of jazz, Spanish music, and the world music scene as a whole. Building on inherent compatibilities between jazz and flamenco, a generation of versatile Spanish musicians has synthesized the two genres in a wide variety of forms, creating in the process a coherent new idiom that can be regarded as a sort of mainstream flamenco jazz style. A few of these performers, such as pianist Chano Domínguez and wind player Jorge Pardo, have achieved international acclaim and become luminaries on the Euro-jazz scene. Indeed, flamenco jazz has become something of a minor bandwagon in some circles, with that label often being adopted, with or without rigor, as a commercial rubric to promote various sorts of productions (while conversely, some of the genre’s top performers are indifferent to the label 1). Meanwhile, however, as increasing numbers of gifted performers enter the field and cultivate genuine and substantial syntheses of flamenco and jazz, the new genre has come to merit scholarly attention for its inherent vitality, richness, and significance in the broader jazz world.

Josemi Carmona & Javier Colina: De Cerca
MUSIC Josemi Carmona & Javier WASHINGTON, D.C. Colina: De Cerca Thu, March 09, 2017 7:30 pm – 9:00 pm Venue Former Residence of the Ambassador of Spain, 2801 16th Street NW, Washington, D.C. 20009 View map Phone: (202) 728-2334 Credits Organized by Spain-USA Foundation with the support of Faustino Winery. Photo by Anya Batels-Suermondt. Josemi Carmona and Javier Colina sign together a musical conversation, with deep flamenco echoes and their unique jazz swing, a natural dialogue blending different musical languages. Guitar and double bass, flamenco and jazz, meet together to explore a repertoire conceived with refinement and love to detail. Gems of the Latin American songbook live together with the elegant compositions of Josemi Carmona, and with some astonishing discoveries in jazz and flamenco. Their live performance is delicate and powerful at equal parts: they are accomplices in this dialogue and dive into all genres with a deep knowledge and personality. They know how to respect the meaning of time in each music, they dominate improvisation and understand when it is necessary to pause for a rest in an exquisite nocturne melody. They speak elegantly about bitter truths, love stories, long nights of music, flamenco tangos and ‘muñequitas lindas’, and weep with a flamenco farruca with a bouquet to Piazzolla. JOSEMI CARMONA Josemi Carmona is one of the fundamental figures in the recent history of Spanish music, flamenco, and guitar. A son of maestro Pepe Habichuela, Josemi is an heir to a crucial 4-generation legacy of decisive Granada artists. At 14 years of age he joined Ketama, one of the most influential and revolutionary bands in Spanish music, selling over 1 million of their 14 albums.

Antonio Carmona
PERFILES Juana Martín (Diseñadora de moda) Antonio Carmona (Músico) La Fundación Secretariado Gitano puso en marcha, hace ahora un año, una campaña de sen- sibilización para la mejora de la imagen social de la comunidad gitana. Su principal objeti- vo es hacer reﬂexionar sobre lo injusto de las generalizaciones, estereotipos y prejuicios hacia los gitanos, y su principal y más grave consecuencia: la discriminación. Un año después, dedicamos un nuevo número de la revista Gitanos al tema de la "imagen social" coincidiendo con el lanzamiento de la segunda fase de esta campaña de sensibili- zación. Para la sección inicial de este número, contamos con dos personas gitanas con una destacada proyección pública: Antonio Carmona, sobradamente conocido por su trayectoria en el grupo Ketama, y Juana Martín, la diseñadora "revelación" de la Pasarela Cibeles 2005. Juana Martín (Diseñadora de moda) a diseñadora gitana-cordobesa Juana Martín Manzano, de 30 años, ha tenido un más que destacado protagonismo en los L medios de comunicación en los últimos meses, al presentar, el pasado 8 de septiembre, una colección en la Pasarela Cibeles 2005 de Madrid: "Una colección étnica, llena de vitalidad y fuerza, donde cada prenda es un arte que renueva y enriquece con ele- gancia el concepto tradicional de lo andaluz y lo gitano", como ha sido caliﬁcada en el certamen. Juana Martín comenzó su trayectoria profesional en 1999, año en el que su colección fue seleccionada, entre más de 150 propues- tas, para representar a su ciudad natal, Córdoba, en el concurso de

A great deal of emphasis is placed on purity and its loss, relating nuevo flamenco with the whole history of flamenco and its discourses, as well as tracing its relationship to other musical genres, mainly jazz. While centred on the process of fusion and crossover it also explores through music the characteristics and implications that nuevo flamenco and its discourses have impinged on related issues as Gypsy identity and cultural authenticity.

Bassekou Kouyate Biography
Bassekou Kouyate Biography Bassekou Kouyate was born on the 7 August 1966 in Garana, a small and multi-ethnic village 60 km from Segu located at the banks of the Niger river. Garana is at the nexus of several villages with deep griot traditions, and a long history. Only a few kilometers away is the grave of the legendary buffalo woman, Do Kamissa, who precipitated the founding of the Mali Empire. (She was the aunt of Sunjata Keita who founded the empire in 1235). Several centuries later these same villages provided many of the celebrated griots of the Bamana empire (1712-1861), and the songs of that period are the constant inspiration behind Bassekou’s music. Bassekou is descended from a long line of griots on both sides. He is the son of Moustapha Kouyate, who played the ngoniba, or large lute, and Yakare Damba, a singer. Moustapha Kouyate was married twice and had 13 children with Yakare (of whom eight are still alive, all of them musicians) and 5 with his second wife Oumou Damba. His ancestors originally came from the Mande heartland (Kangaba) but moved northeast into Segu a few generations ago and adopted the Bamana style of music as their own. Brilliant though he was, Bassekou’s father never made any recordings; he believed that God would punish him if his recordings were played after his death. He also refused to play live on the radio or on television, although Radio Mali tried on several occasions to record him. Neither would he allow his wife Yakare to record, despite the fact that she was a well known singer on the traditional griot circuit in the region of Segu, with a powerful voice much in demand at wedding parties.

Médiagraphie MALI
Bibliothèques d’Amiens Métropole Bibliothèque Louis Aragon - Espace Image et Son MUSIQUES et MUSICIENS du MALI Médiagraphie proposée à l’occasion du Festival d’Amiens, Musiques de jazz et d’ailleurs 26-29 septembre 2013 « Le Mali est l’un des poumons musicaux de notre planète. Qu’ils chantent, pincent des cordes ou caressent la peau d’un tambour, ses musiciens sont écoutés et admirés de leurs pairs à travers le monde depuis de nombreuses années. Certains d’entre eux, comme Rokia Traoré, Ballake Sissoko, Boubacar Traoré, Mamani Keita, ou Salif Keita ont écrit les plus belles pages de notre festival. Les projets joués cette semaine sont tous inédits à Amiens et témoignent de l’incroyable culture musicale d’un pays en voie de cicratisation. » Extrait du programme du Festival LE MALI, pays d’Afrique de l’Ouest, se trouve entre le monde arabe au nord et les peuples noirs au sud. Cette situation géographique en fait un pays d’une grande richesse ethnique et musicale. La tradition qui domine encore aujourd’hui est celle des Mandingues : leur empire (XIIIe – XVIIe siècle) connut son apogée au XIVe siècle. Il s’étendait entre le Sahara et la forêt équatoriale, l’océan Atlantique et la Boucle du Niger, soit sur les actuels Mali, Burkina Faso, Sénégal, Gambie, Guinée, Guinée-Bissau, Mauritanie et une grande partie de la Côte d’Ivoire. Il laisse un puissant héritage musical, source intarissable d’inspiration pour les musiciens modernes. Perpétué et enrichi par la caste des « djeli » (griots), attachée à celle des « horon » (nobles) – pour qui les griots sont les musiciens, généalogistes et conseillers – le fonds musical mandingue est un trésor raffiné de mélodies, de contes épiques accompagnés, selon les régions par divers instruments : n’goni (harpe), kora (harpe-luth), bala (xylophone), xalam (harpe), djembé (tambour à membrane), etc… Cette tradition ancestrale se transmet de père en fils – ou de mère en fille - dans les familles de griots comme les Kouyaté, les Diabaté et les Sissoko.
