AN EVENING WITH PIERRE BENSUSAN

at the Cedar Cultural Center
Sunday, September 25, 2022
7:30 PM

FROM PARIS, FRANCE, PIERRE BENSUSAN IS BACK TOURING NORTH AMERICA
World Music fingerstyle guitar master Pierre Bensusan supporting "Azwan" about our oneness and interconnectivity in the midst of a unifying global crisis.

"It's Like The Guitar Has Been Given Free Reign To Play It's Self!"

French-Algerian acoustic guitar virtuoso, vocalist and composer Pierre Bensusan, surnamed "Mister DADGAD", has taken his unique sound to all corners of the globe.
Pierre Bensusan dropped "Azwan" about our oneness and interconnectivity in the midst of a unifying global crisis.

After a studio collaboration on Donny Osmond's latest album "Start Again", French-Algerian guitarist, vocalist and composer, Pierre Bensusan, released 'Azwan', a 16th album which is probably just what is needed now, beautiful music resonating joyously, providing some respite from the tension of these times. Like good wine, the artist focus, distilled, and as always with such a big, huge heart. Happiness, melancholy, size and intimacy. 'Azwan' feels very dense, with melodic themes and ideas that develop in his own inimitable orchestral style. The mark of a great album when you know you have to listen to it over and over. A very beautiful and successful triumph, an amazing work of art, emotional, delicate, playful and moving. In short, music that touches people in a profound way.
