Note: Biennale Musica would like to inform its audience that the Moroccan singer and musician Asmaâ Hamzaoui and her gnawa ensemble Bnat Timbouktou will not be in Venice tomorrow, 17 October, as announced in the programme, owing to travel documentation issues beyond the Biennale's control. The rest of tomorrow's programme, 17 October, remains unchanged: the first concert, at the Teatro alle Tese, features Alif Hilal, Mohammad Reza Mortazavi and Islam El-Ghazouly (6.00 pm), followed by The Tallis Scholars at the Basilica di San Marco (9.00 pm), with the evening closing at Padiglione 30 at Forte Marghera with Polygonia and Surgeon.
