Musique Berbère

Musique Berbère refers to the traditional music of the Berber people, an indigenous group in North Africa, primarily in countries like Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, and Libya. Characterized by its rhythmic percussion, melodic singing, and use of traditional instruments such as the bendir (frame drum) and the gasba (flute), it reflects the region's rich cultural history. Often performed during celebrations, rituals, and social gatherings, Berber music preserves oral traditions and ancestral stories, serving as a powerful expression of identity and cultural pride for the Berber communities.
