Sililiza (Hear Me): Sounds of a Better World Series
Roll over or click to zoom in
Composer Jim Papoulis has created an energetic and uplifting work that fuses the rhythms from African, American and Latin cultures, and uses a text primarily in Swahili interspersed with phrases in Spanish. Supported by shaker, Djembe and agogo bell, the middle section has the feel of a real celebration with layers of spoken word that lead us to the understanding: “listen, hear, stand strong.” Duration: ca. 3:15.
Performed by Young People's Chorus of NYC, Francisco Núñez, conductor.
