Zeina Maan, souffles du Levant
Syrian artist Zeina Maan invites us into a spellbinding immersion at the crossroads of sacred song, Levantine laments, and the more contemporary currents of Arabic music.
Steeped in the rigor of the great classical masters and driven by an uncompromising quest for authenticity, Maan stands out as one of the most stirring Arab voices on the Montreal scene. Her artistry lies not only in technical mastery, but in that rare ability to stir the very soul of the maqâm. A poet of breath, she takes hold of the classics and drapes them in dramatic intensity and an almost fragile tenderness. For her, tradition is not fixed; it is a living substance, a flame passed from one shore to another.
A rendezvous with the sublime, one that reveals the beauty of cultural lineages and in which music becomes once more a prayer capable of soothing time.
