World Music

Discover the musical cultures of the world!

Far from the noise of contemporary life, the world can surprise us with its richness, its beauty and the diversity of the philosophies that inspire musicians across five continents. The “World Music” series invites you to meet them… The Tuareg women of Mali, the irresistible energy of the Balkans, the Mongolian steppes and their ancestral traditions, or the comparison of two pioneers of Argentine tango nuevo: a multitude of personalities, instruments and ways of conveying the vibrations of the world around us.
