Richard Bona & Raul Midón play Avo Session

Synopsis

As a small child, he often cried for no reason, Richard Bona says, until he was given a balafon that he could play. Since then, Richard Bona’s music and his stage performance is a synonym for good times. Bona grew up in Africa, before moving to Germany at the age of 22 and later to France. There, the young bassist was immediately part of the scene. But Bona has only been truly at home since he moved to New York. There he met his brother in spirit, Raul Midón. They are the perfect pair, two brilliant singers and instrumentalists who bring the African, Latin American, European and North American worlds together. World music at its best – a feast for the senses!
