East Africa - Witchcraft & Ritual Music
£12.00
RARE CD with LIMITED Availability.
A fantastic resource! In this recording, Fanshawe tried to capture the spirit of a musical heritage now nearly extinct.
It is particularly fascinating to experience the manner in which music and medicine are combined in the indigenous practice of witchcraft; music takes on the power of medicine, and medicine becomes associated with the healing sound of drums, interwoven with beautiful threads of melody.
Recorded by David Fanshawe in Kenya and Tanzania (1970-1974).
