For four days the festival reveals its unique spirit in which enchantment touches the public as well as the guest musicians as it has done every year; the culture and spirituality of the Gnawa of Morocco exert their magnetic power in a series of wonderful musical encounters. The Gnawa masters, with their guembris and metal castanets perform with foreign jazz, rock and world musicians, creating original fusions on stage in Essaouira, where the artists share their musical cultures—the merging of music which becomes richer every year.
