GNAWA: INTERVIEW WITH DEBORAH KAPCHAN
The great thing about Nass el Ghiwane and Jil Jilala also—they had a Gnawi, someone who knew the music in each of those groups—was that it connected to this trance aesthetic. Trance has become one of the signature aesthetics of Moroccan music, as far as I’m concerned. Not malhun necessarily, not Andalusian classical music, but popular music has this element in it.
