Album Notes & Community Reviews

The sequel to 'Son茅 Ka La' reunites Schwarz-Bart with singer Malika Tirolien, pianist Gr茅gory Privat and bassist Reggie Washington, with Arnaud Dolmen and Sonny Troup茅 splitting the gwoka drum parts. His kreyol djaz concept fuses Guadeloupean gwoka rhythm with modern jazz harmony, the project of a saxophonist who is also the son of novelist Andr茅 Schwarz-Bart.
