Discover the New Jewel of the Moroccan Amazigh Musical Heritage...
The Anthology of Ṛṛways is the result of two years of meticulous work and many days of recording and filming to bring together in a quality work some significant pieces from the old repertoires, but also from the new albums of the music of Ṛṛways.
This new anthology, "Ṛṛways:A Journey into the Realm of Amazigh Wandering Poet-singers", a result of meticulous research work, comes in the form of a boxed set of 10 albums containing 100 titles recorded by more than 80 artistsat the studio in Casablanca. The anthology does alsocontain 3 booklets, of 120 pages each, in Arabic, French and English tackling several themes such as the origins of the music of Ṛṛways, its history and its evolution over time, the different rhythms ... as well as the biographies of the main Ṛṛways and Taṛṛwaysin.
The Anthology is first and foremost a tribute to Taṛṛwaysin, Ṛṛways and all those who continue to perpetuate this artistic tradition which is an integral part of our national musical heritage. This project came into being thanks to the involvement and spontaneous mobilisation of many researchers, technicians and artists, including about fifty music performers and singers from several regions of Morocco mainly, Agadir, Inzegane, Marrakech, Casablanca, Essaouira, Ouarzazate..., all eager to share their art and contribute through this project to its preservation and transmission.
For those who are acquainted with this musical genre, these educational booklets will open the doors to this musical heritage: the origins of the music of Ṛṛways, its history and evolution over time, the rhythms and different melodies as well as the choreographies used in the performances. Listening to the titles attached to these booklets will enhance yourexperience and knowledge about this art.
