I left New Zealand mid-2003, bound for Istanbul and a new lif. After two years, a Belgian guy lured me into his world, deep in the heart of Europe. For a long time I was an in-process immigrant. One day we married. These days it's about photography, a little red wine and wandering ... and so the journey goes.
An evening of stunning music ... I could have stayed listening all night!
The Gnauoua Family play traditional Algerian music and I was there playing photographer tonight. I can still hear the music, she writes, smiling at 1.16am.
It's okay, I asked the same question. I think that may have been why they wanted photographs ... if they don't have one, I'm going to suggest it.
The music was a delicious mix of Algerian and African sounds. Kind of chanting but that's just the one that is so stuck in my head at the moment. A lead then a reply, drums, a real beat that was irresistible.
Anyway, I'll let you know as soon as I know ... probably sometime next week.
