Pankisi Ensemble (live @Le Guess Who 2023?)

Pankisi Ensemble is an all-female Chechen music group from Pankisi Georgia. The ensemble preserves and develops lesser known vocal and instrumental genres of Chechen music rarely heard outside of their own community. These include epic legends such as “Illi,” Sufi religious chants, and even love songs.
Setlist
-Nazm (religious sufi chant)
-Deli Rezi Xilva (religious sufi chant)
-Yuonaxi Belxarna
-Ziezag Du
-Nagah San Oilano
-Madelmo Baral
-Netai Gamagebina
-Hala Hejchi
The group's sound is also influenced by Georgian music, in which the Pankisi Ensemble is also deeply immersed. This has affected not only their repertoire, which in addition to Chechen songs also includes the folklore of different regions of Georgia, but also their general style, making the ensemble a particularly unique representation of the shared and distinct musical cultures of the Caucasus.These are young musicians who are constantly and actively evolving. They are not afraid to experiment but they maintain the integrity of their sound, never allowing it to slide into a kind of banal “ethno-fusion.”
In January 2023, their debut album “Music of Kists, Chechens of Georgia” was released on the Ored Recordings label.
