Titre extrait du 1er Album de Victor Démé Enregistré au Studio Ouagajungle et produit par Chapa Blues Record

Victor Démé - Deni Kemba

Kolinga's latest single illustrates a song that Rébecca M'Boungou composed for her mother. A title that is both solar and deep, naive like a child's gaze but as contrasting as the different stages of a life. The warm arms of "Mama" envelop us in softness, lighten our hearts, and restore our fervor, promising us that we will never be alone.

KOLINGA - (Mama don't let me)

PROGRAM NOTE
For many years, my wife Victoria and her FAB5 quintet (string quartet and percussion), have entertained thousands of people at numerous performance spaces and travel hubs in New York City, including Moynihan Train Hall, Oculus World Trade Center, Javits Center, and Chelsea Market. Having seen many of their shows, especially those at travel hubs, there's a certain tension and release you experience watching people wait anxiously for their trains, and then the release they feel when they are finally on their way. I've had these experiences myself, so I wanted to create two pieces that emulate these feelings.

Wound Up/Unwind consists of two contrasting pieces for string quartet and percussion. The first, Wound Up, for string quartet and cajón, imitates the feeling of being worried, anxious, and frustrated, especially while waiting to board a train. The second, Unwind, for string quartet and handpan, is calm and soothing, perhaps emulating the satisfying feeling of relaxing in a quiet seat as the train leaves the station. Both pieces can be performed independently and in any order.

Wound Up/Unwind is written for and commissioned by the FAB5 quintet with support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
