Melodies from lost worlds: Hugh Tracey’s historical recordings of traditional African folk music 1943-1963
Guest: Michael Baird (SWP Records)
Cocktails by weird mixmaster Mark Henning’s Cocktail Bingo Bar.
Listening in the dark is a fantastic, deep experience.
Join us to explore the enchanting melodies that Hugh Tracy recorded in Africa. From 1943 to 1963 Tracey undertook numerous expeditions to record the traditional folk music that was quickly vanishing.
His monumental work is a tribute to the genius and diversity of African music.
Hugh Tracey travelled almost two thirds of Africa, conducted countless expeditions, recorded 10.000s of songs, and issued 100s of records. Effectively he built a Musical Memory of the subcontinent, an archive where the songs and music of the ancestors of many contemporary Africans are collected.
Guest is Michael Baird, who undertook the also monumental task to listen through 1000s of tapes, and who compiled a series of 25 compilations of that.
