Every year Moussem and BOZAR present an evening dedicated to the rich and diverse tradition of Sufism, the spiritual branch of Islam.
This year, in a coproduction with the Nomadic Arts Centre, the Sufi Night will take place on Saturday the 26th of October, from 3 p.m. at the Center for Fine Arts.
The price is 20 euros.
The twelfth edition of Sufi Night will take you to Senegal and Turkey.
During the night, visitors can assist to the concert of Sheikh Papa Djimbira Sow, an extraordinary performer of Qasidas (odes of praise to the Prophet) and member of the Qadiriyya brotherhood. Another prestigious guest is renowned Senegalese author, composer and performer Jupiter Diop, who, accompanied by members of the Baye Fall brotherhood, will present their famous chanting ritual sitting in a circle.
Finally, the Istanbul Turkish Historical Music Ensemble, acclaimed specialists of traditional Turkish music, will introduce the audience to the devran ceremony.
To learn more about the sublime world of Sufism, visitors can also attend a screening of the film A Thousand and One Voices, and a conference by Dr. Bakary Sambe on “Islam and Sufism in Senegal”.
