Cimarron and Carlou D

Lucy Duran presents specially recorded sessions by Colombian cowboy group Cimarron and Senegalese singer Carlou D, who performs songs celebrating Muslim mysticism.

Lucy Duran presents two specially recorded sessions from Latin America and Africa.

Cimarron perform the joyful and energetic 'musica llanero' from the vast central plains of Colombia, with virtuosic harp-playing and songs to milk cows by. While Carlou D brings his big-range, soulful voice to a mixture of songs that celebrate Muslim mysticism and warn of the dangers facing his homeland Senegal.
