Djazia Satour Brings Algerian Soul and Blues to Beaune’s Lanterne Magique

A Minimalist Approach to Powerful Music

The concert will feature a deliberately stripped-down format: just three instruments – Djazia Satour’s voice and bendir, and the piano of Pierre-Luc Jamain. This minimalist approach allows the nuances of their interplay to shine. The unexpected rhythm of the bendir, a traditional Algerian tambourine, will drive the compositions.

Exploring ‘El Hourriya’: Freedom Through Music

Djazia Satour will be showcasing songs from her 2025 album, El Hourriya (meaning “The Freedom”). This album continues her exploration of themes surrounding liberty, identity, and cultural fusion. The performance will also revisit pieces from her extensive repertoire.
