Il gruppo è composto da cinque donne e quattro uomini, appartenenti all'etnia Tamashek (Tuareg) della confederazione Kel Antessar. Si sono incontrati in uncampo profughi in Burkina Faso, dove la loro musica divenne un mezzo di sopravvivenza di fronte ai problemi economici, politici e sociali della regione. Nel dicembre 1995, pochi mesi dopo la loro formazione, i Tartit fecero il loro concerto di debutto al MASA Trade Fair for African Arts tenutasi a Abidjan in Costa d'Avorio. Nello stesso anno il gruppo ha partecipato al "Festival delle Voci di Donne" a Liegi, in Belgio. A partire da questo evento i Tartit cominciarono a ottenere una certa visibilità internazionale, contribuendo a diffondere la conoscenza della cultura e della lingua tuareg in tutto il mondo. Nel 1998 effettuarono un tour attraverso l'Europa e nel 2000 furono in tour nel Nord America. Al Womad Festival di Seattle, dopo aver eseguito il loro repertorio, cantarono sul palcoscenico assieme ai colleghi del Mali Ali Farka Touré e Afel Bocoum. Al Desert Music Festival di Essakane si esibirono ancora con Touré e Bocoum, ma anche con Tinariwen, Robert Plant, Oumou Sangaré, Lo'Jo e Baba Salah. Nel 2006, si sono uniti a Afel Bocoum e Habib Koité per formare un collettivo, Deserto Blues. Nel 2010 hanno partecipato alla rassegna Artintown a Torino. La loro affascinante musica é eterea e terrestre allo stesso tempo: i canti raccontano delle innumerevoli generazioni di viaggiatori e commercianti dell'Africa Sub sahariana.

  • Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger a Dissertation Submitted
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Eric James Schmidt 2018 © Copyright by Eric James Schmidt 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Rhythms of Value: Tuareg Music and Capitalist Reckonings in Niger by Eric James Schmidt Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Timothy D. Taylor, Chair This dissertation examines how Tuareg people in Niger use music to reckon with their increasing but incomplete entanglement in global neoliberal capitalism. I argue that a variety of social actors—Tuareg musicians, fans, festival organizers, and government officials, as well as music producers from Europe and North America—have come to regard Tuareg music as a resource by which to realize economic, political, and other social ambitions. Such treatment of culture-as-resource is intimately linked to the global expansion of neoliberal capitalism, which has led individual and collective subjects around the world to take on a more entrepreneurial nature by exploiting representations of their identities for a variety of ends. While Tuareg collective identity has strongly been tied to an economy of pastoralism and caravan trade, the contemporary moment demands a reimagining of what it means to be, and to survive as, Tuareg. Since the 1970s, cycles of drought, entrenched poverty, and periodic conflicts have pushed more and more Tuaregs to pursue wage labor in cities across northwestern Africa or to work as trans- ii Saharan smugglers; meanwhile, tourism expanded from the 1980s into one of the region’s biggest industries by drawing on pastoralist skills while capitalizing on strategic essentialisms of Tuareg culture and identity.

  • Unemployed Intellectuals in the Sahara: the Teshumara Nationalist Movement and the Revolutions in Tuareg Societyã
    IRSH 49 (2004), Supplement, pp. 87–109 DOI: 10.1017/S0020859004001658 # 2004 Internationaal Instituut voor Sociale Geschiedenis Unemployed Intellectuals in the Sahara: The Teshumara Nationalist Movement and the Revolutions in Tuareg Societyà Baz Lecocq Summary: In the past four decades the Tuareg, a people inhabiting the central Sahara, experienced dramatic socioeconomic upheaval caused by the national independence of the countries they inhabit, two droughts in the 1970s and 1980s, and prolonged rebellion against the state in Mali and Niger in the 1990s. This article discusses these major upheavals and their results from the viewpoint of three groups of Tuareg intellectuals: the ‘‘organic intellectuals’’ or traditional tribal leaders and Muslim religious specialists; the ‘‘traditional intellectuals’’ who came into being from the 1950s onwards; and the ‘‘popular intellectuals’’ of the teshumara movement, which found its origins in the drought-provoked economic emigration to the Maghreb, and which actively prepared the rebellions of the 1990s. By focusing on the debates between these intellectuals on the nature of Tuareg society, its organization, and the direction its future should take, the major changes in a society often described as guarding its traditions will be exposed. INTRODUCTION ‘‘In this still untamed Sahara – among the camel herdsmen, young Koranic students, government officials, and merchants now anticipating a more peaceful and prosperous future – we were seeking rhythms of life unbroken since the time of Muhammad, 1,300 years ago.’’1 When the Tuareg rebellions in Mali and Niger ended in the second half of the 1990s, journalists set out to look for the unchanging character of Saharan life, ruled by tradition and ways as old as mankind.

  • The Last Song Before the War-PRESS KIT.Pages
    The Last Song Before the War PRESS KIT SYNOPSIS THE LAST SONG BEFORE THE WAR is a feature-length documentary that captures the power, beauty, and uncertain future of Mali’s annual Festival in the Desert. Told through stunning high definition footage captured at the 2011 festival, the film is a lyrical road trip through Mali, the birthplace of the blues, to the legendary city of Timbuktu where Grammy-award winning musicians play their hearts out in the dunes of the Sahara. Shockingly, the music and the festival were silenced in 2012 when the violent occupation of Northern Mali by extremists destabilized the entire Sahel !region. To date, the festival and hundreds of thousands of refugees remain in exile. ABOUT THE FILM From the bustling streets of Mali’s capital of Bamako to the exotic dunes of the Sahara, THE LAST SONG BEFORE THE WAR takes the audience on a high-definition journey to the most remote music festival in the world. The famed three-day event features Grammy-award winning musicians playing their hearts out in the Sahara Desert surrounding Timbuktu. Over the years, the Festival has attracted some of the biggest names in music from Bono, Robert Plant, Jimmy Buffet, Chris Blackwell (Island Records), and Tom Freston (former president of MTV). Anouk Zijlma of Africa Travel and the Association for the Promotion of Tourism to Africa (APTA) ranks the Festival in !the Desert as “one the most exciting annual events on the whole African continent.” The Last Song Before the War PRESS KIT The festival, in operation since 2001, was originally held in Essakane, a small rural village and commune near the Niger River, where musicians jammed amidst rolling sand dunes and an exquisite night sky, a reflection of the festival’s origins in the ancient nomadic Tuareg culture.

  • É Meglio Morire Che Essere Rifugiati». Fadimata Walett Oumar, Voce E Tamburo Dei Tartit, Il Primo Gruppo Composto Da Donne Tuareg, Parla Del Mali Oggi
    INTERVISTA - «É meglio morire che essere rifugiati». Fadimata Walett Oumar, voce e tamburo dei Tartit, il primo gruppo composto da donne Tuareg, parla del Mali oggi La musica racconta la nostra resistenza INTERVISTA - Linda Chiaramonte INTERVISTA - Linda Chiaramonte «Durante l'occupazione islamista, suonare era proibito. Ma per il mio popolo questa forma d'arte fa parte della vita, è amore, storia, politica» «È meglio morire che essere rifugiati». È la frase più dura e dolorosa pronunciata da Fadimata Walett Oumar, voce e tamburo nel gruppo musicale Tartit, tre album all'attivo, il primo composto da donne tuareg , nato nel 1995. Nel 1998 il primo tour le fa conoscere in Europa, nel 2000 sono al Womad a Seattle, negli anni seguenti al festival di musica del deserto a Essakane, da anni trasferitosi a Timbuktu, nel 2013 cancellato e in esilio per colpa del conflitto in corso in Mali. La loro condizione è una spina nel fianco, una delle poche ragioni che cancella il sorriso aperto dal viso di Fadimata, che negli anni Novanta è stata profuga anche in Italia. «Siamo quasi tutti rifugiati e questo ci fa molto male. Dover vivere con pochi sacchi di riso e qualche chilo di albicocche al mese per noi equivale ad essere mendicanti. Un tuareg non è abituato a chiedere, ora siamo obbligati a farlo. Metterci in fila per ricevere il cibo ci riduce a nulla, rivogliamo la nostra dignità». E aggiunge: «Vogliamo che tutti intervengano perché la pace si ristabilisca in Mali e noi possiamo ritornare. Non c'è rifugiato al mondo che stia bene.

  • The “Tamachek Vibration”: How Musicians Rework Identity Through Fluid Cultural Traditions
    51 The “Tamachek Vibration”: How Musicians Rework Identity through Fluid Cultural Traditions Katherine Detamore Indiana University South Bend The Tamachek of Mali are a unique people among the larger Tuareg subgroup of Berber people who live in Northern Africa. As part of a study abroad program based in Mali’s capital city Bamako, I was able to conduct a two-month research study among a small Tamachek community located there. These connections enabled me to perform with my Tamachek informants at two concerts and learn much about their traditional, yet fluid forms of music, dance, and dress and about the social cause they support through their art. Through the transformation of these traditions, my Tamachek informants renegotiate their own social and cultural identities. Not only does this research add valuable information about Tamachek musical traditions and fluid identities to the small body of research about them, it also provides an important look at the wider issue of praise singing in Mali and calls into question its validity in connection with the support of a social cause through musical traditions. Introduction and a way of creating and maintaining social solidarity.2Not only has this been the case in the United States, but many The following paper discusses the ways in which certain forms of African music, especially Malian griot music, have members of the Tamachek1 community have used music been used for political purposes.3 Indeed, certain types in order to invoke identity, social solidarity, and support of Tuareg music were used in the recent movement for a specific social cause.

  • The Tuareg Festival of Anchawag
    The Tuareg festival of Anchawag A Tribal gathering in the Sahara featuring: Tinariwen, Tartit, Ali Farka Toure, Haira Arby And Traditional artists of the Region January 10-13, 2006- Northern Mali www.anchawadj.free.fr [email protected] The preservation of the cultures of the Kel Tamasheq people of northern Mali has become a matter of grave concern to the Elders, artists, and community leaders. Now, for the first time in over 30 years, 45 nomadic tribes will unite in the biggest desert gathering known as “TAMUKEST” to celebrate their music traditions and raise awareness about their endangered cultural heritage. Using the 1995 Flame of Peace of Timbuktu as its symbol, the Tuareg festival will attract thousands from around the world to experience first-hand the artistic power, historical importance, and beauty of this threatened culture. The festival will feature musical performances, traditional dances, camel racing, desert poetry, traditional sport and games, holistic medicine, artisans’ products, hair braiding, henna tattoos, initiations, and much more. After a severe drought in 70’s which wrought havoc on their subsistence patterns and led to the exile of thousands of Tuaregs to neighboring countries, followed by a period of armed rebellion(1990-1995) and the more recent commitment of the last decade to a lasting peace, the Tuaregs of Northern Mali are struggling to overcome poverty. Additionally, the Tuaregs are in dire need of schools for the education of their children, programs to empower their women and a consistent and safe supply of water. 1. MISSION: The mission of the festival is to preserve the endangered cultures and traditions of the Tuareg people of northern Mali, celebrate “TAMUKEST”, the annual desert gathering of 45 nomadic tribes, and promote sustainable development in the region of Anshawag.
