As part of the Arabesques 2026 festival: A bridge between the Sahara and Cuba. When Lemma's songs and rhythms meet Omar Sosa's panoramic piano: a timeless, telluric and luminous connection between the repertoire of southern Algeria and Afro-Caribbean traditions. Singer Souad Asla, a leading figure of southern Algeria, accompanied by her group Lemma, blends her voice with the piano of Cuban Omar Sosa for a sensitive, melodic and spiritual journey. For years, Souad Asla has been defending, bringing into the present, the threatened popular repertoire of her native region, Souara. Omar Sosa, for his part, is a tireless ambassador of Afro-Caribbean traditions and the music of associated diasporas. Between these two, the connection is immediate. A synergy that is felt from the first second and sounds like an obvious fit; the complex rhythms and feminine desert songs connect with the roots and notes of the Cuban musician.
