Lambarena: Bach to Africa

Pierre Akendengué and Hughes de Courson's Lambarena: Bach to Africa is a cross-cultural project that blends J.S. Bach's baroque melodies with African vocal and rhythmic textures. The arrangements place familiar melodic lines into settings with choral singing, acoustic guitars, light percussion and traditional timbres, yielding a gentle, meditative classical crossover sound that foregrounds dialogue between European baroque forms and African musical traditions.
