With the goal of introducing Americans to some of the most exciting and dynamic artists from the Muslim world, Caravanserai is a groundbreaking cultural engagement program that intends to open and expand the dialogue between American and Muslim societies using the arts as a point of entry. Hailing from Morocco, Majid Bekkas is a contemporary master of gnawa – one of West Africa’s oldest musical traditions – and a predecessor to American jazz and blues. Joined by Moroccan-American oud master Brahim Fribgane, Bekkas and his Ensemble will take audiences on a spiritual journey to the soul of the gnawa culture.
