For that occasion and on the 26th of April, the Beursschouwburg presents the previously unreleased sound of 3Bas, a bizarre trio that of three Brussels bass saxophonists. The mega-reeds are fluttered by François Lourtie, Marti Mélia and Luc Mishalle. For this occasion they will be assisted by Badr Derras, Abdessamad Semlali and co, among others, and in between also a good helping of unadulterated Moroccan Sha’abi. And of course, there will also be a few surprising interventions: we don’t have diaspora every day…

Don’t miss the last Diaspora session, this Friday 8 April at 21.00, at Beursschouwburg in Brussels. For this occasion, an immaculate 'Diaspora Orchestra’ was put together with a number of musicians from all over the globe. Check them out: Mina Kanto (congas) Maria Antonia Sabater (bongos + percussion), Hervé Badiel (Tama), Bao Sissoko (kora & vocals), Youba Dia (bass & guitar), Laurent Blondiau (trumpet) and Luc Mishalle (saxos). Free entry! Be there…
