Product Description:
Rising from his humble beginnings to become one of Africa's most celebrated musicians, World Music & Jazz saxophonist Manu Dibango became celebrated for his distinct amalgamation of Jazz and Funk with the tradition music of his native Cameroon and the rhythms of Africa.
While studying in Paris, Dibango become exposed to a wealth of music and art not accessible in Cameroon. His heart became enthralled with Jazz, and he soon began playing music that combined sounds of his homeland with the Western styles of American Jazz artists such as Duke Ellington and Charlie Parker. Categorized as everything from Afro-Jazz to World Music to Afro-beat to Makossa to Reggae, Dibango created his unique sound by embracing the musical spectrum.
V.I.E.W. brings you this exclusive concert DVD, recorded live at the height of his musical prowess in 1981 from Belgium. Manu Dibango is the godfather of the African adaptation of Jazz and R&B music, as well as an inspiration to his continent, and the purveyor of a truly original sound admired the world over.
