Event Details
Ana Moura and N'Diale
Old Fruitmarket
Please Note: This is a past event.
With her strikingly earthy, intensely soulful contralto voice, Ana Moura is poised to become the next global star of Portuguese fado. Having cut her teeth in rock and pop bands as a teenager, before being championed by leading fadista Maria de Fe, Moura has released six albums since 2003 – most recently 2011’s Coliseu – and guested live with Prince and the Rolling Stones. She appears tonight with her four-piece band.
Hailed by Songlines as “a perfectly weighted partnership of equals”, N’Diale brings together the Jacky Molard Quartet, led by the pioneering Breton violinist who’s graced such legendary outfits as Gwerz, Pennou Skolm and Celtic Procession, with the Foune Diarra Trio, featuring one of Mali’s fastest-rising vocal stars. The combined line-up also features saxophone, accordion, double bass, kamele n’goni (a traditional Malian hunter’s lute) and djembe, drawing on Celtic, African and jazz influences to forge a new musical language.
