A World in London, Resonance FM, Borough, London
Brazil met up with Senegal on A World
In London this week – not on a boat in the mid-Atlantic, but in the
Resonance FM radio studio – with two of these countries finest
artists creating a musical treat for us.
Kadialy Kouyaté |
Nina Miranda and Kadialy Kouyaté have
both guested before on AWIL, but never played live together on air.
In fact, their first public performance was about ten days ago. On
the strength of this, AWIL asked them to recreate it for the
listeners of London, and they were both happy to.
Nina told us about her latest album
(with one track already a hit in Portugal), and paid tribute to one
of her musical influences. Kadialy Kouyaté, meanwhile, continues
working on solo projects, collaborations, musical theatre, kora
teaching and, thankfully for us, live radio sessions.
As well as having the honour of being
in the presence of two great singers and players improvising some
haunting and beautiful music together...... I've now met someone
who's appeared on Top Of The Pops!
