Track3: Yando
SWP009 –
"Music from another world" (New York Times, 1999). Mbuti pygmies came out of the forest to barter with their Bantu neighbours – Nande, Bira, Mangbele & Budu – but it was also the scene of a unique musical interaction! One helluva party going on at Chief Baonoko's village, tipoyi carrier songs, message drums, pygmies playing bantu instruments, and also singing their own forest songs. Historical recordings by Hugh Tracey.
