In YOUYOUYOU, the youyou or zaghareed takes center stage: a powerful trill sound that resonates worldwide as an expression of joy and community. This ancient vocal practice, rooted in Africa, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean region, continues in the diaspora and evolves with today’s urban polyphony.
With their vibrating voices, the performers of the YouYou Group create a dynamic sound fabric where collective singing takes shape in an unpredictable, sometimes electrifying way. The interaction between voices and rhythms forms a sonic chain that fills the space and sweeps the audience into an auditory experience that is both hypnotic and energetic.
Brussels, a city where languages, cultures, and voices intersect, serves as the perfect soundboard for this performance. YOUYOUYOU transcends language and tradition, inviting the audience to experience polyphony not only through hearing but also through feeling.
