Centrafrique - Central Africa

Description

Long-time bestseller of the MEG-AIMP collection and long out of print, this album of sanza music recorded among the Gbaya of the Central African Republic by ethnomusicologist Vincent Dehoux was originally released on CD in 1993. It is now reissued on vinyl and CD for the Afrosonica - Soundscapes exhibition. It presents a selection of "songs for thought": an intimate repertoire conducive to introspection, accompanied by the repetitive and meditative sound of lamellophones.
