An author, composer and singer of music inspired by the Judeo-Moroccan and Andalusian heritage, Samy Elmaghribi<\/strong><\/a> wrote between 1942 and 1964 a repertoire of songs which became popular in all of North Africa. Influenced by Salim Halali<\/a> of whom he greatly admired the voice, he sang traditional songs, in particular ancient qassidat<\/em> by Sidi Qaddour Al \u2018Alami, Cheikh Bouazza, Bensliman and other great tenors of the malhun <\/em>poetry. Also, he wrote a popular music featuring traditional influences, based on the motifs of malhun<\/em> or hawzi<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In 1996, il returned living in Montreal, but continued to travel the world and participated in many important musical events, such as the Festival of Gharnati<\/em> Songs in Rabat and Oujda (1999) and the Arab-Andalusian Festival at the UNESCO in Paris (2000). He also worked as a cantor in the Sephardic synagogue Beit Yosef in New Jersey (USA), and taught Sephardic liturgy, at the Yeshiva University of New York, among other places.<\/p>\n

He passed away on March 9, 2008 in Montreal.<\/p>\n
