About this listen

 This episode is about a presentation to multiple different audiences about a research trip taken by musical scholars from the Centre for Sound Communities to Guinea. I am a research assistant and I share what my role was in these presentations as well as my personal connections towards the films. These presentations were spread across the month of February to schools, libraries and community halls all around Cape Breton island. The music, the instruments, the lyrics, the journey all of which were presented were so captivating. I still hear the songs in my head and I only heard them during those sessions, but the rhythms were so catchy they have stuck with me.
