That\u2019s Bensusan\u2019s message and the meaning&nbsp;behind \u201cAzwan,\u201d the award-winning artist\u2019s 15th album that dropped March 13, 2020 in&nbsp;the UK (Nov. 12, 2021 in France). The French-Algerian guitarist-vocalist said, \u201cAlong my&nbsp;life\u2019s journey, I have experienced unity off and on, being more or less aware of the impact&nbsp;and influence of every action upon the entire universe. As time goes on, the more I feel&nbsp;connected to all people, animals and universally to the whole of nature. Being that we are&nbsp;all connected, my intention is that every action and behavior contributes, supports and&nbsp;adds value to our interconnectivity, especially through my music. It feels like a nurturing or&nbsp;even a healing process for me and those with whom I share the music.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Voted by <strong>Guitar Player<\/strong> magazine readers as <strong>Best World Music Guitarist<\/strong>, Bensusan\u2019s&nbsp;music is contemplative, wistful, sublime and prodigiously performed with inspiration&nbsp;rooted in nature. \u201cThe concept of \u2018Azwan\u2019 came from observing bees, those solar insects&nbsp;working in the darkness together as one, and by observing flocks of birds flying and&nbsp;dancing together as one. It has been an inspiring symbolic representation of the&nbsp;continuum of music. When seeing \u2018Azwan\u2019 written, it can evoke a place, a city or a mood,<br \/>\nbut when hearing it said out loud, it sounds like \u2018as one.\u2019 I\u2019ve been contemplating all the&nbsp;music from \u2018Azwan\u2019 for years before actually recording it, taking time to allow all the notes&nbsp;to come together as one.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bensusan is a storyteller, using expressive and lyrical acoustic guitar parlance and ethereal&nbsp;vocalization to allure, transfix and transport. \u201c\u2018Azwan\u2019 is primarily a solo instrumental&nbsp;album on which the guitar is conceived as an orchestra, delivering melody, bass, chords&nbsp;and counterpoint in the same space. To it, we add some vocal elements and several&nbsp;collaborations with guest musicians,\u201d said Bensusan who has lived in Paris since age four.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Teaching himself to play guitar at age eleven after four years of piano training, Bensusan&nbsp;inked his first record deal when he was 17, winning the <strong>Rose d\u2019Or<\/strong> at the <strong>Montreux&nbsp;Festival<\/strong> for his 1975 debut album, \u201c<strong>Pr\u00e8s de Paris<\/strong>.\u201d More recently, he won an&nbsp;<strong>Independent Music Award<\/strong> in 2014 for \u201c<strong>Encore: Live<\/strong>,\u201d a triple live record. He\u2019s regarded&nbsp;as one of the greatest acoustic guitar players of the 21st century, known for his immense&nbsp;sound vocabulary utilizing hues of world music, new age, jazz, classical, traditional, folk&nbsp;and pop with French, Arabic, Latin and Celtic cultural references. None can be isolated,&nbsp;they represent Pierre\u2019s genuine vocabulary and the best part of our world in its current&nbsp;state, a world sharing itself.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pierre Bensusan will unveil his new album \u00ab Azwan \u00bb on its release November 12,&nbsp;2021 on Le Triton \/ L&#8217;Autre Distribution.&nbsp;This new work will be presented live on stage on Saturday January 22, 2022 at Le&nbsp;Triton (Paris), and all over France during 2022.
