Two extraordinary pop music artists from North-Africa (the Maghreb), Algerian-born Idir and Morocco’s Najat Aatabou, will share a bill in “A Night in the Maghreb,” a concert on July 18 in Avery Fisher Hall that will introduce the world-renowned performers to an American audience for the first time. Both artists have Imazighen (Berber is the more-commonly-known word, but is considered derogatory) roots which have influenced their musical style and expression. Paris-based Idir—born in the Kabylia region of Algeria—has been at the forefront of socially and politically relevant French-Algerian music since the 1970s. Najat Aatabou is a powerful vocal artist, one of the few, female Chaabi singers performing today, whose music merges Imazighen and Arab influences, and carries a strong feminist message that draws wide audiences at home and abroad.
