Music

Upon my return to Morocco, I picked up this wonderful double CD set: Desert Blue, Ambiance du Sahara, a collection of ballads from Ethiopia, Sudan, Algeria, Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal, The Gambia and Mali, by Network Music. Frankfurt, Germany.

While in Morocco, I was introduced to this singer from Mali, and couldn’t wait to order her CD set called Oumou. I play it every day at the moment.

Another of my favorite CDs this month is Senegalese Ismael Lo’s Jammu Africa. This is sure to appeal to Western tastes.
