Mustafá Aicha Rahmani (1944-2008) was a Moroccan composer born and active in Tétouan, in the northwest of Morocco. His extensive and culturally rich musical legacy includes ballets, operas, orchestral music, chamber music, lieder, choral music, and solo instrumental pieces. Rahmani was academically trained at the Hispano-Moroccan Conservatory of Tétouan, a cultural heritage of the former Spanish protectorate, starting in 1956 under Spanish professors such as Antonio de Rivas and Emilio Soto Fernández. He completed his studies in 1972 and later taught at the National Conservatory of Tétouan until his death. Rahmani's work is characterized by its unique blend of Moroccan musical elements and European compositional techniques, making him a significant figure in Moroccan music. His mentor, Emilio Soto Fernández, influenced him by integrating Moroccan folk melodies with Western academic formats and introducing him to mid-20th-century Spanish compositional techniques like serialism. Rahmani's innovative approach established him as a compositional paradigm in Morocco, merging natural musical resources of his country with European academic forms.
