Bonga

Recados de Fora (2015), the 31st album by the legendary Angolan musician Bonga, narrates a fascinating voyage through different epochs and continents while with the Atlantic Ocean as its guiding theme. A journey through time in which Bonga reflects upon his youth, on the awakening of his conscience to Portuguese colonisation and the way in which his fisherman and accordion playing father introduced him to music. This also features his love for semba, a symbol of the Angolan national identity (kizomba, one of the favourite styles of younger generations represents a modernised version of semba).

In this concert, Bonga is accompanied by Bétinho Feijó (guitar), Hernani Lagrosse (bass), Ciro Bertini (accordion), Gipson Fantomas (drums) and Joseana Calunga (Dancer).
