5.0 out of 5 stars P.S., May 20 1999
This review is from: African Portraits (Audio CD)
I can't believe I forgot to mention the great jazz trumpet, backed up by the flavor of Africa.

What a great history of a people coordinated with the history of their music.

Add this music to your library. And share it with your children.

5.0 out of 5 stars A devastatingly powerful work., May 20 1999
This review is from: African Portraits (Audio CD)
African Portraits is a devastatingly powerful work; a piece of truth pouring into my ears. Strong vocals with great harmonies and layering, supported yet never overpowered by the orchestra. The drums played a major role rather than the usual delegation to a background position. Hannibal's judicious use of dissonance was an exquisite joy to the ear.

This is truly a classic of the nineties. May the peoples of the world have the determination and fortitude to move on from here.
