Listened to this while listening to Mussorgsky as interpreted by Ravel.
Works of art (Modest's composition and Ravel's orchestral arrangement) of equal stature to your articles in my opinion.
Historically accurate, lucid and engaging narrative - helping to reconstruct the African self through African eyes.
I am an Ethiopian raised in an Orthodox Christian household; such an illuminating exposition of West African Islamic history and tradition is a wonderful way to spend some time on a Sunday.
Fascinating. African history (apart from Egypt) is so often ignored, or limited to Bantu migration and the colonial period.
