Composer and arranger Avishai Darash has written this piece last year as a tribute to the merging cultures of northern Africa and the middle east. Kartana in sanskrit means “to cut”. In his eyes there are no actual musical borders that define or cut the origins of the piece. Darash has compiled in this arrangement an array of influences from andalusia, the maghreb and west europe. “Kartana” has become another experience where one can hear the signature sound of the Marmoucha Collective.
