Ahiha. Poetry of love and revolt

With Kaissa Ould and Massyl Aïta

Thursdays of voice and word
Bar Lounge | 27.02.2025 / 19h | Concert and readings
Dijous de veu i paraula

Kaissa Ould will introduce us to the oral poetry tradition of the women of Kabylie through a selection of pieces that accompany different moments in the women's life cycles, and which show their desires and yearnings for freedom. This selection and translation into Catalan is the fruit of years of research. She will recite them in Amazigh and Catalan accompanied by the music of Massyl Aïta.

 

Kaissa Ould is a philologist and journalist from Kabylie. She has been living in the Catalan Countries since 2008, initially hosted by the Catalan PEN. Today she continues her activism in favour of democracy, freedom for the Amazigh people and women's rights.

Massyl Aïta is a musician, composer and producer, born in Algiers, who has lived in Barcelona since 2006. He has been performing on stage as a singer and guitarist since the age of 12. He later chose the electric bass as his main instrument, covering a wide range of musical genres.
