- Summary:
- "The South African cellist, composer, and vocalist Abel Selaocoe has released his second album, "Hymns of Bantu," which shares the modal scales and overtone harmonic systems of South African music before Western four-part harmony was introduced. Exploring how cultural histories evolve, the works on the album were written for ensembles varying from African percussion to orchestra, solo cello, and electric bass. The album includes Selaocoe's Tsohle Tsohle; Emmanuele; Kea Morata; Tshepo - I; Tshepo - II (Rapela); Bach's Cello Suite No. 6 in D Major, BWV 1012: IV. Sarabande (arranged by Fred Thomas for Cello and String Orchestra); and Dinaka."--The violin channel website.
