Essaouira – Hind Ennaira is one of the rare women maâlems, or master musicians, among the hundred or so Gnaoua artists in Morocco, who usually pass on their musical tradition from father to son.
"There are very few women maâlems. You can count them on the fingers of one hand," Hind Ennaira told RFI at the Gnaoua and World Music Festival in Essaouira, Morocco, last month.
