This encounter takes us across an especially high number of national borders:
nine or eleven states lie on the way from the Pakistani state of Punjab to the
French department of Maine-Et-Loire, depending on whether one chooses the route
across the Balkan or through Northern Africa. It was also along these two routes
that the Roma migration took place — a kind of a life’s journey for the non-Roma
Thierry “Titi” Robin, the sensitive virtuoso who has caused a couple of sensations
with his border-crossing projects since the 1990s. Robin’s engagement with the
qawwali, the ecstatic music from the Sufi culture, is his first step out of the
already quite broad Roma music repertoire. To do so, Robin has found a partner in
nobody less than the reigning king of qawwali: Faíz Ali Faíz is one of the most
talented and dignified successors of qawwali legend Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, who
died in 1997. Nusrat brought qawwali onto the world’s concert stages, and Faíz is
ready to enter a dialogue with other musical styles — an unusual step from this
somewhat hermetic, seclusive art form.
Both artists have appeared at Glatt & Verkehrt before, but in this joint project
they perform a completely new program.
