Nassima is an exquisite vocalist and fervent ambassador of the classical Andalusian music of Algeria, noted for her role in preserving this ancient genre that was traditionally associated with males. In addition to this music, her program includes the popular Algerian chaabi and Sufi music from the Maghreb. Nassima, accompanying herself on mandola and oud (lute), is joined by musicians on guitar, percussion, gumbri, qanun, and violin.

Presented by Carnegie Hall in partnership with World Music Institute.
