Modou Le Joueur de Hang
Add to My Profile More Videos
a few days ago, i was invited by modou gay, a musician from sengal and a personal friend of mine to watch a documentray about his journay made by a french director , the film focused on the kind of music modou is trying to make : a rare mix of traditional "sufi" music with modern jazz, to do so , modou travels to countries like :egypt,switzerland and france.
his musical instrument "the hang" fits to almost evey musical style we see in the film , wether traditional oriental music , nubian or jazz.
after watching the film and talking to modou about his journy , i remembered what i was told in my childhood about music "it is the only language all humans can understand"
it is probabley people like modou who can run a "dialogue" between different cultures far better than any politican

Hi ALZAHER!
hey, I like your blog. i will be dropping by from time to time to check out your perspectives. I agree on one point, actualy mentioned above: Latin America is now (we are) in the struggle for our freedom. At least, there are winds of change.
