Biography
Sudani is a Jazz/Gnawa dialogue activated in the collaboration of saxophonist/composer Patrick Brennan, Gnawi M'allim Najib Sudani, and drummer/percussionist/vocalist Nirankar Khalsa.
The musicians improvise together on equal terms, bringing with them their accumulated heritage, experience and experiments. The music naturally extends across the traditional trance song of the Moroccan Gnawa to the open parameters of energy playing. Gnawa call and response, dance and vamp weave with the riff and shout of its sister, the Blues. The music swings, sways and jumps in the exuberant encounter of these kindred musical currents.
