Bolokonondo is a rytm from the Malinke culture from West africa. It's part of a family of rythms called Dunumba's. They are the dances of the strong men. What I did here withe the music is to convert the whole rythmic structure in an orchestral setting,slightly influenced by the music of Steve Reich. This video is part of a collaboration with Susana Weingarten called Five knights and a muse. I am responsible for the music while she is responsible for the dance. music: Ton Haring choreography: Susana Weingarten video editing: Hal Pittaway assistent editor: Susana Weingarten Lighting: Jose Infante and Darryl Dickerson Costume design: Luzano Rey
