Les Meilleurs Souvenirs De La 1ere Biennale Artistique Et Culturelle De La Jeunesse 1970

VINYL FORMAT. Recorded in 1970 as part of the First Biennale of Arts and Culture for the Young in Mali. The Regional Orchestra of Mopti was a state funded orchestra that participated in country wide music festivals and competitions; a hypnotic band featuring electric guitars and a large horn section. This is the first in a series of six Mali music LPs that Mississippi will be reissuing in 2010 from Sterns. A serene and droning record that is both sorrowful and celebratory.
