Headlines: Kantara performances in Italy and Tunisia have been widely covered by local press, which stressed the beauty of the new sound of the Arab-Appalachian music and the message underlying the strength of the intercultural dialogue. ‡ The music has been described as "magic, surrounding atmosphere where the Arab and American cultures merge to grow together and explore new, undiscovered paths, at the same time delivering a message of peace" (il Resto del Carlino – Bologna, Italy). ‡ Kantara “succeeded in sowing joy throughout the audience by offering a display of jubilatory art to make us forever forget hatred. We spent an evening of happiness.” (Le Quotidien – Tunis, Tunisia) ‡ Kantara “knows no borders” and “has created a program which departs from the ordinary and allows a harmony between different types of music which one might believe impossible.” (Le Temps – Tunis, Tunisia) ‡ “The music is a dream, binding by its accord, the fluidity and lightness of its notes and rhythms, and the solid complicity between the Tunisian and American instrumentalists.” (La Press – Tunis, Tunisia)
