Mariama

sat 3 jul 2021 00:00 hrs

World music, compiled by Stan Rijven.

There will be no 32nd edition of the Africa Festival in Hertme next week, but there will be the 25th anniversary of Dias Latinos in Amersfoort https://diaslatinos.nl 

A good reason for a Mariama broadcast entirely dedicated to the Afro-Latin Connection.

“The connections between African and Latin music run long and deep.  The rhythms of Africa were taken to the New World by slaves and came back in the form of Cuban and Antillean records that would inspire Africa’s own musical renaissance. Africans called this music ‘rumba’, though it covered a whole range of Hispano-Caribbean styles and rhythms. It was modern music. It belonged to the bigger, wider world. It meant progress. But its roots were in Africa, and as far as Africans were concerned, it belonged to them. So to an entire generation of Africans that came of age in the 1950s and ‘60s, Latin music became a means of transcending colonial alienation. It was their own modern music”.

This is the cover text of the beautiful compilation “Rumba on the River”. An overview of 60 years of Afro-Latin connection!
