Aka Moon
25 years
Special guests: U.K. Sivaraman, Fabian Fiorini, Mark Turner, Miles Okazako, Amir El Saffar, Joao Barradas, Tcha Limberger, Nedyalko Nedyalkov, Misirli Ahmet, ….For 25 years and more than 20 albums long, Aka Moon has been celebrating encounters between many genres, with leading musicians from India, Africa, the Balkans, the Arab world and the United States. For their 25th anniversary, the Festival des Libertés has given them carte blanche, which could lead to an earthquake of emotions for which Aka Moon holds the secrets. The participation of the grand master of Indian percussion, Sri U.K. Sivaraman, is a rare event in itself, and the presence of Mark Turner, one of the stars of American jazz, makes us think it will be a moment of great intensity.
