Part of the Arabesque Festival at the Kennedy Center, B'net Houariyat, who are five women from the region of Marrakech in Morocco, who sing and dance, performing traditional music of Houara, of the Hammada, together with Berber dances and styles like the Aita  and the Chaabi, performed recently at The millennium Stage to a raving audience.

B'net Houariyat have been invited to perform at numerous international festivals and in leading concert halls around the world.
B'net Houariyat are Ms. Zahi-a Bani, Ms. Khadija Haliba , Ms. Malika Rahmi, Ms. Saida Madrani, and Ms. Halima Zeiter. B'net Houariyat have released the following recordings: Poèmes d’Amour des Femmes du Sud Marocain (1994); Voix des femmes de Marrakech (1997); and, Voices of Marrakech (1997). B'net Houariyat also recorded with Peter Gabriel on Gabriel's Up. The performance, as you can see in the video, was energizing and hypnotic. It left the audience craving for more of Bnet Houariyat's magic.

when such pictures and video, I just want to cry. Crying not from beeing sad, buy from happiness and joy. when I saw this video, I just felt proud of beeing a moroccan that belongs to this amazing land. The land of the braves, the land of hospitality.
I really admire what you are doing in the moroccan board and the least I can say is: "thank you 100...00 times".
