The godfather of the Malhoun music Haj Houcine Toulali died in the morning of December 7th in Meknes. He lost his longstanding fight against a liver cancer that ate him away despite of the intensive care he received in the best hospitals of the country. The art of the Malhoun owes a great deal to the late Haj Houcine Toulali who brought it his unique interpretation of hundreds of "Quassidas". In order to insure the continuation of that heritage, Haj Houcine Toulali has created a school where this music will be taught and developped. In this tragic occasion, we offer our heartfelt condoleances to the family of Haj Houcine Toulali and to his numerous fans worldwide. << Back to the main page |
