In the most intense moments of trance during Gnawa nights, a reciprocal relationship is forged between the m'allim playing the guinbri and the person dancing in trance. While it is the guinbri whose riffs draw in the trancer and propel him or her deeper into the groove, the dancer in turn makes demands and gives directions to the guinbri, which responds in turn. This type of transcendent reciprocity, in which one wonders who is the player and who is being played, is a highlight of the best jazz performances as well.

in turn. Nirankar surrenders
