Wednesday 26/07 PARC COUTTET
Kolinga is a musical adventure with a thousand sources that have been skilfully questioned; at its centre, we discover the voice that reveals the inner turmoil of a Franco-Congolese artist.
Rebecca, who chooses to talk about what she knows best: her life. She deals with the ghosts of history, the memories we explore and those we flee. Congolese electric guitars mix their sadness with jazz melodies. From this abundance comes a perpetual trance, sometimes slow, sometimes frenetic. Embarked by polyphony, Kolinga takes us somewhere where the world's tears fade away behind music's ability to reconcile hearts and minds.
Initially a duo, Kolinga has become a sextet with the desire to say more, further, stronger. A collaboration with Gaël Faye on the track "Kongo" allowed the group to open for him at the Olympia in December 2018.
