Khalid Bounouar will perform at the Altonaer Theater (Grosse Bühne) in Hamburg, Germany on September 13, 2026. Bounouar is a Moroccan-German musician known for his distinctive blend of Gnawa music traditions with contemporary jazz and electronic elements. His work often incorporates traditional instruments like the guembri (a three-stringed bass lute) alongside modern production techniques, creating a sound that bridges cultural heritage and innovation. He frequently explores themes of identity, migration, and spiritual connection within his compositions.

The Altonaer Theater, established in 1900, is a significant cultural institution in Hamburg’s Altona district. The “Grosse Bühne” (Main Stage) is its largest performance space, historically used for theatrical productions, operettas, and concerts. It underwent extensive renovations in the 1980s to modernize facilities while preserving its architectural character – a blend of historicism and Art Nouveau styles. The theater is recognized for its intimate atmosphere despite its size and boasts excellent acoustics suitable for diverse musical performances. It currently operates as a municipal theater offering a varied program including plays, musicals and concerts.
