Afrique de l’Ouest. 1970 à Bouaké
Special offer Afrosonica
Afrosonica On sale until Saturday, 31 January 2026
![]()
Carrefour inter-culturel et commercial important au centre de la Côte d’Ivoire, Bouaké s’est épanouie au cours du 20e siècle autour d’un des marchés les plus riches et colorés d’Afrique de l’Ouest. Quand l’entomologiste Bernard Mondet s’y retrouve au milieu des années 1970, il se passionne pour les traditions musicales ivoiriennes, ghanéennes, maliennes, guinéennes ou voltaïques qu’il y rencontre. Armé d’un enregistreur à bandes et d’une paire de microphones, il réalise une collection importante de documents sonores où se croisent avec bonheur les balafons senufo et bobo, les harpes-luths kora des griots mandingues, les flûtes peul et mossi ou l’arc musical birifor.

Afrique du Sud Le chant des femmes Xhosa
Special offer Afrosonica
Afrosonica On sale until Saturday, 31 January 2026
![]()
This album brings together four original creations by KMRU, Yara Mekawei, Midori Takada, and Ntshepe Tsekere Bopape (Mo Laudi), commissioned for the exhibition Afrosonica – Soundscapes, presented in 2025 at the MEG (Museum of Ethnography of Geneva). The tracks are stereo versions of multichannel works featured in the exhibition.
Depot revisits the MEG's sound archives, weaving a web of resonances between past and present, and questioning the aesthetics and legacy of colonial archives. Mémoire d’arbres creates a dialogue between a Senufo xylophone from the MEG’s collection and a synthesizer. The Shrine brings together chants and invocations inspired by Sufi spirituality. Daughters of the Dust. Sons of the Soil (Part 2) blends electronic sounds with traditional sonic elements from Pedi and Ndebele women’s mural-making rituals.
Each piece offers, in its own way, a space for reflection on time, transmission, and the invisible threads that connect diverse sonic landscapes.
More than a mere extension of the exhibition, this album offers an autonomous, sensory, and polyphonic listening experience — a journey through shifting soundscapes where resonance and creation meet. -
Afrosonica. Soundscapes
Special offer Afrosonica
Afrosonica On sale until Saturday, 31 January 2026
![]()
A long-time best-seller of the MEG-AIMP collection and long out of print, this album of sanza music recorded among the Gbaya people of the Central African Republic by ethnomusicologist Vincent Dehoux was originally released on CD in 1993. It is now being reissued on vinyl and CD to coincide with the exhibition Afrosonica – Soundscapes. It features a selection of ‘songs for thought’: an intimate repertoire conducive to introspection, accompanied by the repetitive, meditative sound of lamellaphones.

Kenya L'obokano, lyre des Gusii
Special offer Afrosonica
Afrosonica On sale until Saturday, 31 January 2026
![]()
Fruit d'enregistrements récents (2005-2008) effectués dans le nord du Congo (Brazzaville), ce disque présente un échantillon de répertoires musicaux parmi les plus importants des communautés pygmées. En apportant une nouvelle pierre à la connaissance de ces chasseurs-cueilleurs, il démontre l'unité d'une tradition musicale ancestrale, dont les représentants se répartissent pourtant en différents groupes dans toute la forêt d'Afrique centrale.

Mali. L'art des griots de Kéla
Special offer Afrosonica
Afrosonica On sale until Saturday, 31 January 2026
![]()
À une centaine de kilomètres au sud-ouest de Bamako, sur la rive gauche du fleuve Niger, le village malien de Kéla est connu pour abriter une importante communauté de musiciens griots (jeliw) appartenant pour la plupart à la famille Diabaté. Leur art est reconnu dans toute l’Afrique de l’Ouest et de nombreux griots viennent de partout pour y séjourner, parfois plusieurs années, dans l’espoir de s’en imprégner. Les six pièces pour voix accompagnée à la guitare ou aux luths traditionnels koni ont été enregistrées en 1978 (plages 3 à 6) et en 2019 (plages 1 à 3), dans la même case traditionnelle qui sert toujours de « studio ». Le livret accompagnant le CD restitue les témoignages de plusieurs musiciens importants, qui évoquent quelques éléments clés de leur univers.
