Tarwa N-Tiniri

Friday, Oct. 24, 7:30 p.m.
Weis Center Concert Hall

In 2012 in the heart of Morocco, childhood friends came together to form a band that would become a musical force representing the soul of the Amazigh people and the vast, rugged landscapes of the desert. This musical odyssey is a tapestry of culture, tradition and heartfelt expression. The ensemble comprised of five self-taught musicians hails from the city of Ouarzazate in the southeastern region of Morocco. The name Tarwa translates to generation in the Amazigh language, while N-Tiniri is a nod to the desert, an awe-inspiring expanse that has shaped the lives and stories of countless generations. In the band’s own words: "We are a generation that has the responsibility to perpetuate the culture and dignity of desert peoples."
