"The Luhya people originate in the Western province of Kenya, but many of them have migrated to large towns, and in particular to Nairobi. Music has always been an essential component of Luhya social life, with a distinct repertoire reserved for each occasion (births, circumcisions, weddings, funerals) or played for sheer entertainment. Playing on typical Luhya instruments, Mzee William Ingosi Mwoshi and his son, Jackson Amusala, are among today's best 'neo-traditionalists' -- a generation of Kenyan musicians who mastered the traditions of the rural areas and were able to transform them for a changing society, so that the old genres would still make sense for people both in the villages and in the towns."

Payadores Du Chile
Label:
DAQUI (FRANCE)
Format:

Price:
$40.00
Catalog #:
DAQUI 332041
"The Payadores are folk poets who improvise their lines accompanied by the guitarrón chileno, a member of the guitar family with 25 playable and sympathetic strings. The performers on this disc -- Manuel Sanchez, Moises Chaparro and Guillermo Villalobos -- are considered among the most famous exponents of the Payadores style in Chile. The disc was recorded live in Langon, France during the
Nuits Atypiques Festival
in July 2008. It captures perfectly these unique artists' fascinating, improvised 'poetry battles' and their tight connection with the audience."
