Buya d ij n yesem - Buya is a beautiful queen
Was a tribute to our Amazigh vorsitng Buya but also to our artist friend; Hafid Tifridjas the writer and composer of this legendary song. With this song, Imetlaa closes the first version of the Amedyaz/Troubadour project with a view to the sequel in the future with new music material and by reflecting on the other forgotten icons of the Amazigh song.
Buya d ij n yesem is part of a varied selected repertoire of the Amedyaz/Troubadour project to reflect on the Amazigh/Riffian song and to pay homage to its treasurers!
Concert Amedyaz (the Troubadour) was performed during the International Literature Festival Utrecht in TivoliVredenburg on September 30, 2021 by the musical ensemble: Amedyaz.
This music project, led by the composer and band leader of Imetlaâ Mohamed Allati and has a mission to bring the heritage of Amazigh music to life.
Also, not unimportant is that Amedyaz project is a tribute to the Amazigh/Riffian singers and artists of yesteryear who stood at the cradle of the preservation and further development of the intangible heritage of the Amazigh in general and in the Riffian in particular.
The musical ensemble Amedyaz; consists of the music group Imetlaâ and their musical friends.
