Aujourd’hui à Accents Ouverts, on parle de Bali, mais pas seulement de Bali.

Ni Putu Arya Putri Awyawaharika, ou Rika (@its__rika ) chercheuse socioculturelle, nous présente l’Indonésie et ses plus de 400 langues, puis l’histoire du tourisme sur l’île, qui commence à l’époque coloniale. Elle explique ce que cette croissance change pour les Balinais : la circulation, le logement, l’arrivée de nomades numériques. Et elle donne ses conseils pour voyager de façon plus respectueuse.

Entrevue en anglais, avec des résumés en français.

À l’agenda :
📅 17 octobre : concert de lancement d’Ama Lel Hawa, d’Emna Mâaref (@emnamaaref ) à l’église de Saint-Édouard
🖼️ Jusqu’au 23 octobre : exposition sur la diplomatie florale ( @cetase.udem)
🍜 5 novembre : atelier sur la nourriture et l’appartenance
✍️ L’Asie en 1000 mots cherche des étudiant·es à la maîtrise et au doctorat pour écrire des articles, aussi avec le @cetase.udem

Thank you to everyone who came to Sounds and Solidarity! After expenses, we collected $1,000, and a generous member who chooses to remain anonymous has matched that amount. We’re sending the amount of $1,000 to each of the Elham Fund and the Edward Said National Conservatory of Music, both wonderful organizations sending funds directly to Gazans in need.

Cet épisode, on parle de ce qu'on porte quand on quitte, mais aussi de comment on peut rédecouvrir notre ville autrement.

Emna Maref (@emnamaaref), musicienne tunisienne établie à Montréal, pour parler de son premier album solo Ama Lel Hawa / أَما لِلهَو

20 ans après ses débuts au oud. Un disque instrumental qui traverse l'exil, la révolution, la distance. Et qui sort en vinyle, parce que certaines choses méritent d'exister physiquement.

Ensuite, Jennifer Alleyn (@jennifer_alleyn) revient sur les ondes pour présenter Dans les pas de Kaïros, le tout premier projet hors ondes d'Accents Ouverts. Une promenade sonore gratuite co-développée avec @clarafcom, pour parcourir Montréal à travers les lieux du film dans le cadre du @festival_fil. Cinéma, témoignages de personnes migrantes et littérature en poche.

Disponible en ligne au site web de Kairos - Liens en BIO 👇

Aujourd’hui on vous emmène à la découverte d’ @emnamaaref , une artiste multidisciplinaire tunisienne basée à Montréal qui redéfinit les frontières de la musique alternative.
Joueuse d’oud hors pair, productrice et DJ, Emna réussit le pari fou de marier la profondeur du maqâm (la musique traditionnelle arabe) avec l’énergie brute et immersive des textures électroniques expérimentales.
Son premier album, Ama Lel Hawa / أَما لِلهَوى, est un voyage sonore hypnotique, né d’improvisations pures en studio.
Un projet puissant salué par la critique internationale.

Mais son talent ne s’arrête pas là :
Cinéma : Elle signe des conceptions sonores captivantes pour le cinéma d’auteur (sélectionné au TIFF ou aux JCC).
Scène : Elle envoûte les festivals alternatifs les plus pointus, de Suoni Per Il Popolo au Canada jusqu’au Gabès Cinema Fen en Tunisie.
@emnamaaref est définitivement une force créative à suivre de très près.

👉 Foncez écouter son univers

Today is Bandcamp Friday, which is a good time to support our work by purchasing our latest releases, if you have the means to do so.

Last week, we released 𝑨𝒎𝒂 𝑳𝒆𝒍 𝑯𝒂𝒘𝒂 / أَما لِلهَوى — the first solo full-length album by Tunisia-born, Montreal-based oud player and composer Emna Mâaref.

Full album out on vinyl + digital everywhere, soon available in record stores in Montreal — link in bio. (If you live in Montreal and want to avoid shipping costs, feel free to DM us).

"A music that, though full of secrets, demands to be felt. Its questions arrive as commands: has longing no hold over you…? Hence a style often pressing, urgent, fearlessly reaching towards the void: hawa. But in this reach, its voice remains unhurried, present, open, for only it knows what it hides: “Yes, I am longing, and within me is a burning ache / But someone like me does not let her secret be known” (بَلى أَنا مُشتاقٌ وَعِندِيَ لَوعَةٌ وَلَكِنَّ مِثلي لايُذاعُ لَهُ سِرُّ)."

All music composed and performed by @emnamaaref
Bass by Lounis Adjissa on A4 and A5, Saxophone and Electronics by Habib El Bardi on A5 and B1.
Recorded by @radwanghazimoumneh at hotel2tango.
