Du rap au jazz contemporain, en passant par le tango ou l’afrobeat, Naïssam Jalal brille par sa capacité à tisser les liens entre les différentes cultures musicales. On l’a trouvée aux côtés de la crème des musiciens africains, de la scène parisienne ou des grands noms du jazz français et international, de la musique arabe et de nombreux rappeurs.L’engagement par et dans la musique : telle est la ligne directrice de ses multiples projets qui n’ont cessé de surprendre grâce à leur originalité, leur authenticité et leurs qualités artistiques.Avec Healing Rituals, formation en quartet proche de la musique de chambre, Naïssam Jalal a imaginé et composé huit rituels de guérison en lien avec les éléments de la nature. Des rituels qui « répondent aux trois impératifs du corps en souffrance : le silence, la transe et la beauté. Le silence pour l’apaisement. La transe pour l’oubli des douleurs et des angoisses. La beauté dont l’esprit a besoin de se nourrir pour retrouver l’espoir et l’envie de vivre face à la laideur du corps qui souffre. »« Naïssam Jalal garde la foi et relie le souffle – humain, divin- aux éléments. » Louis-Julien Nicolaou, Télérama (avril 2023)
