Heute ist Lotta Lubkoll bei mir zu Gast im Podcast. Sie ist vor einiger Zeit zusammen mit ihrem Esel Jonny zu Fuß von München über die Alpen bis nach Venedig gelaufen. Eigentlich ist sie gerade in der Ausbildung zur Schauspielerin als ihr Vater schwer krank wird und kurz darauf stirbt. Er hatte einen langgehegten Wunsch - irgendwann als Rentner wollte er mit dem Trecker und einem alten Zirkuswagen ums Mittelmeer reisen. Leider kam es dazu nun nicht mehr. Für Lotta aber fielen nach und nach die Puzzelteile an ihren Platz, die Zeit mit ihrem Vater hatte...

The Music of Black Peru: Cultural Identity in the Black Pacific
The “Black Pacific” is a term coined by our guide, ethnomusicologist Heidi Carolyn Feldman. She describes the circumstance of African descendants displaced not only from their ancestral homes in Africa, but also from the Atlantic coast nations where their enslaved ancestors were originally brought. This Hip Deep edition explores the sonically vibrant realm of Afro-Peruvian music, a young genre identification that has flourished since the 1950s and has now produced artists of international renown, such as singer Susana Baca, and the black folkloric company Peru Negro. The music is sensuous and deeply beautiful, and represents a fascinating and little-understood history. We w...
