Ahmed Soultan’s Atlas Tour: A Cultural Journey Across Three Continents
Renowned singer, producer, and composer Ahmed Soultan has recently announced the launch of his much-anticipated tour titled the Atlas Tour, following the release of his EP “Atlas.” This three-continent tour promises to be a celebration of Moroccan culture with performances in Amazigh, Darija, English, and French languages.
Kicking off in Marrakech on Friday, May 24, 2024, the tour will embark on a journey across various cities, starting with Tanger on May 31, 2024. From there, it will traverse international destinations such as Paris, Milan, Oslo, and New York, before concluding in Agadir on October 19, 2024.
Accompanying Ahmed Soultan on this musical venture will be his sister Samira, known for her contributions to the hit song “Nti O Ana” (from the soundtrack of Rhimou), and Virna Nova, the singer and virtuoso in Classical and Jazz Fusion guitar, who will open for the entire tour.
In addition to the tour, Ahmed Soultan has also unveiled his latest music video titled “DENIA,” sung in Amazigh and extracted from his recent EP “Atlas.” Directed by Hideki Okutani, the video intricately weaves Ahmed Soultan into the iconic film “Mirage (Sarab)” by the esteemed Ahmed Bouanani, released in 1979. This film depicted the pursuit of a better life culminating in disillusionment.
Ahmed Soultan’s Atlas Tour represents more than just a series of concerts; it is a cultural journey that transcends borders and languages, uniting audiences through the universal language of music. With its eclectic mix of traditional Moroccan sounds and contemporary influences, the tour promises to be a mesmerizing experience for music lovers worldwide.
As Ahmed Soultan and his talented collaborators take the stage, they will not only showcase the richness of Moroccan heritage but also inspire audiences to embrace diversity and celebrate the beauty of cultural exchange. Through his music and artistry, Ahmed Soultan continues to be a beacon of creativity and unity in an increasingly interconnected world.
