Concert + Saimaniq album launch
Inuit throat singing joining cross-cultural musical landscapes
Saimaniq evokes in listeners a sentiment of infinite liberty and adventure through the desert spaces of Katajjaq (Inuit throat singing). Rhythms from the Arab Emirates, flutes from Japan and Scandinavia, and electronic music join together to pay tribute to the beauty and the richness of Inuit art. An unforgettable voyage by OktoÉcho with composer Katia Makdissi-Warren, and singers Lydia Etok, Nina Segalowitz and Hélène Martel.
