Congorama
Music series
2023
Congorama combines concerts, DJ sets, workshops, listening sessions and music festivals. The series is oriented on three locations in the world which carry the word “Congo” in their name: the Congo River, Congo Mirador, a village in northern Venezuela, as well as Congo Square in New Orleans. Separated by great geographical distances, all three locations are blessed with incomparable sonic and cultural riches and share many things in common which spring from their violent colonial past. Congorama invites the public to engage with the sonic knowledge and history of these geographies and experience how sound can generate and connect different worlds.
