OneBeat- North African Rhythms and Song

This year's OneBeat theme – Musical Migrations – invites fellows to collaboratively write music that reflects on how large movements of people have shaped music, and how music-making can encourage dialogue, community resilience, and rootedness amidst displacement and upheaval. OneBeat's wonderfully eclectic cohort of 2016 fellows includes a Zimbabwean mbira player and vocalist, a provocative Sao Paulo-based sound artist, a Muscovite gusli player, a virtuosa darbuka player from Istanbul, a soul singer from Seattle, and 21 other incredible artists.

Join OneBeat artists from Tunisia, Algeria and Turkey to explore rhythms and songs from North Africa and the Middle East.
