For decades, Grammy Award winner Susana Baca has represented Peruvian music to the world. Here, Susana gives voice to her life-long immersion in the music of the African Diaspora. The songs of African descendants in Cuba, Argentina, New Orleans, and across the world... The rhythms of forro, cumbia, tango... AFRODIASPORA is a travel log that spans centuries and continents through the voice of one of the world's most celebrated singers.
![London Mozart Players - Sappho Sings - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/be7df1d6-6895-4763-8971-6acda6ac682b.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
It's testament to the force of Sappho's art that, even though practically all that remains of her work is, tantalisingly, just fragments, those fragments of her work still have the power to move, intrigue and inspire us. Huge thanks to Ralph Woodward for giving me the opportunity to set Alasdair Middleton's wonderfully immediate translations, to the London Mozart Players for their fiercely vivid playing, and to the Fairhaven Singers for making Sappho sing again with passion and love.
