De Constantine à Constantinople

Description:

"How and to what extent has Ottoman music influenced Maghreb music? Have the Turkish janissaries, along with their military fanfares, contributed to giving the Maghreb music its singular character? Did the alien Anatolian, once definitively settled in the African land, only bring their martial knowledge? So many questions that this album-book tries to answer by showing the presence of a true diaspora culture"--Back cover.
