The Great Angolan singer BONGA will be performaning at Cankarjev Dom in Ljubljana (Slovenia) on January 14, 2012.
Bonga's voice is utterly unmistakable, the trademark of this singer who has been bringing Angolan music to the world since the 1970s. Both artist and political activist, Bonga fell foul of the Portuguese police at the time of the conflicts with Angola. He has always been a symbol of the independence movement. Today, with his group Semba Masters (the semba is a staple rhythm in Bantou music) Bonga sings the beauties of his native land with his rough, melancholic voice. His music, with its acoustic echoes is a taster of what awaits the audience in his up-beat concerts. There's no way you can stay sitting down when he gets going.
We are looking for additional concerts around the date in Lljubljana.
Please let me know if you have any interest and need further information. You can also visit his webpage on our website : click_here.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
Fabrice Gogendeau
