À propos de l'événement
The aim of these workshops is to preserve, promote and make the heritage of traditional Cameroonian songs accessible to all:
- By offering workshops for collecting and arranging traditional songs (poems, epics, tales, riddles, fables, ritual songs…)
- By creating song repertoires for all types of choirs from this collection
- By disseminating this repertoire through the publication of sheet music booklets via choral singing networks in Africa and around the world
- By offering these songs as support for teaching music education in schools in Cameroon and elsewhere.
