Sega in Symphony
is a music recomposition of the sega music, the folkloric music of Mauritius, played on string instruments
will relate the history of the music created by the slaves
will resonate with the history of the endemic forest and the ebony tree species, one of the most highly valued heartwood used in the fabrication of classical music instruments
Typically, sega music takes place on the beach, where fishermen and villagers gather to play and dance around a large campfire. Photo by Pritesh Chooramun.
