The Journey to Tunisia
Some things cannot be brought to Berlin. Then you travel there.
The Journey to Tunisia is the counterpart to everything else I do: not a programme that brings the world onto a Berlin stage, but a group that travels to the country the music comes from. I was born in Tunisia in 1954 and have lived in Berlin since 1975 — that road runs in both directions.
Such a journey is curated like a festival: it has a dramaturgy, high points, room to breathe, and it lives off contacts grown over decades — musicians, workshops, houses, people who unlock a room because they know you.
For institutions, associations and groups who want more than sightseeing, I build journeys as a programme: with concerts, encounters, context — and with someone along who speaks the language.
My role
- Concept and dramaturgy of the journey as a programme, not a tour
- Access to musicians and places through long-grown contacts
- Accompaniment, hosting and translation on site
- Coordination with partners in Tunisia and in Germany
- Cultural journey

Shall we build something like this together?
