Occitan polyphony with Barrut

Lopa Kothari presents a special live performance from the Occitan group Barrut recorded at Womex, plus marimba-based music from the Esmeraldas province of Ecuador.

Lopa Kothari presents extracts from a special live performance by the polyphonic singing group Barrut, recorded last month at WOMEX 24 in Manchester. Barrut, seven singers and a percussionist from Southern France, use their voices to tell stories of resistance and humanity, singing in Occitan, also known as lenga d鈥櫭瞔. Elsewhere in the show, we hear music from the Malian griot couple Amy Sacko and husband Bassekou Kouyate, as well as a track from a new compilation of marimba-based music from the Esmeraldas province of Ecuador. Recorded outdoors, the release offers up unique melodies and rhythmic patterns rooted in the Afro-Ecuadorian folklore.
