Soufi voice from Upper-Egypt

6 artists on stage

Today, instead of a village, a rudimentary stage is set : a few wooden benches joined or overlapping, strings of bulbs as lighting and a sound system and anarchic saturated serve as a framework for a surge ecstatic. The voice of Sheikh Taha dominates and flies these electrical smell, focusing primarily emotion, far from academic formalism. The key lies in the ability of munshid (singer religious) to communicate his feelings, through the pursuit of saltana. Love mystical, ecstatic joy, anguish of absence, abandonment of the body, everything is delivered by the sound of a single voice… Sheikh Taha, a young sheikh lifestyle mystique - he lives alone in a small "zawiya" a few kilometres from Luxor - exudes a naive simplicity that makes him one of the new heralds singing Sufi.
