     Trying some Gnawa Musical Instruments in Barcelona, Spain

    Trying some Gnawa Musical Instruments in Barcelona, Spain

    The Gnawa are a Moroccan ethnic group well known for their love of music, which they use to express themselves in a range of age-old rituals. It is generally agreed that the Gnawa, also known as Gnaoua, were brought as slaves to Morocco from East and West Africa, and their songs and chants may refer to this injustice against their ancestors. The Gnawa are also known as traditional healers, where they use their music and chanting as part of the healing process. The hypnotic beat of their music, along with the rhythmic, repetitive chanting have a somewhat hypnotic, calming effect.
