Pyè Aleman. Sång till visheten

Information

Finally some new arrangements of traditional Haitian songs by Sten Källman!

This steady and beautiful song grows with a crescendo, the percussion cautiously sneaking its way in, adding more power and feeling. Lyrics in Haitian and Swedish. Rhythm score included.

”This song is sung in Badjo, a village in northern Haiti. The singers call upon Batala, an ancient vodou character representing heaven and the birth of children. The nago rhythm originates from the Yoruba people in Nigeria, where it is associated to masculine power and energy.” – Sten Källman
