The former Zap Mama member's first solo album (released in 1996) expands upon the pygmy-inspired yodeling that made the all-female vocal group so appealingly exotique at the time. But rather than going the a cappella route again, the Cameroon-born Paris resident arranges her Eton-language songs with instrumentation that becomes increasingly woodsy throughout the course of the album. In light of the crisp, percussive vocals Nyolo layers so fluidly, the French instrumentalists seem largely superfluous. Nyolo's art largely involves degree-zero voice and percussion, which are perfect for her tales of female village life--of healers who, unable to bare children themselves, enmesh themselves in the lives of girls such as Nyolo. In spite of a certain timbral sameness throughout the record, Nyolo appears to have discovered a wonderful balance between the forest, the village, and the world at large. --Richard Gehr

    5 out of 5 stars early christian music.......2007-04-19

    Great music this is the music practiced in the early centuries of the Church, before the western church destoryed a lot of it.This is so emotionally it energizes you to praise God. They did a great job reconstructing the chants Great Buy

    4 out of 5 stars Mozarabic Chant - Emphasis on ARABIC.......2006-03-25

    I'm sure other reviewers comments about this work and generally about Mozarabic chant in general are true. Christianity originated in the east and Mozarabic chant's less polished, austere qualities most likely resembles ancient christian chant. The quality of the work is unquestioned.

    But for a person whose hearing sensibilities have been so influenced by western gregorian chant, the heavy arabic influence in the music may prove a hard listen for the western ear.

    You definately want to listen to the samples before purchase.

    5 out of 5 stars Byzantine Chant in Latin/Latin sung in Byzantine Chant.......2001-09-07

    It is Byzantine Chant sung in Latin. Think of Latin hymns sung by a Byzantine soloist, two or more singers, or a choir. Lycorgos Angelopoulos is a godsend as he finally sings the Latin hymns right because I have always wondered what the Latin would sound like sung by somebody with a thick Greek accent.This recording is similar to other recordings by the Ensemble Organum. The melodies are characterized by an ison(drone). Marcel Peres also does a fine job of singing Byzantine Chant in Latin even though he is not Greek.To me, this singing is THE original Gregorian Chant and what Gregorian Chant should sound like. The Gregorian Chant that most people hear and think of as Greg. Chant is actually the Solesmes style which is an interpretation of Greg. Chant and should not be synonymous with Greg.Chant. The Solesmes style is too polished and refined for early Christian chant and is therefore not historically accurate even though it is the official one used in the Latin rite(not Latin language) since 1850. Early Christian chant to me sounded more austere and ascetic and this recording along with the other Ensemble Organum recordings(Old Roman Chant, Beneventan Chant, Ambrosian Chant, etc.) proves that this is what Gregorian Chant really and originally sounded like.

    5 out of 5 stars The Latin Mass meets the Arab Moors.......2001-08-20

    Marcel Peres has done a fine job of recording an excellent representation (and in the process made available) of one of the rarest and least-known of all liturgical traditions.

    The Mozarabic Rite, which survives in the Spanish cathedrals of Toledo and Salamanca alone, is a sumptuous feast for the ears and senses. Combining the immortal Latin phraseology of the Mass and its various parts, the Mozarabic tradition colors them with a temperament totally unique. Diverging from the unadorned, simple, appropriately named plain-chant of the Gregorian tradition, the Mozarabic formula incorporates Arab musical influences to the most Christian of events, the sacrifice of the Mass and holy communion.

    Peres' Ensemble Organum does a head-dizzying job of making the melismatas (long variations and note changes on one vowel or sound) breathlessly exciting to listen to. Its apparent at once that this music is singular among the world's traditions, and deserves to be heard by more people. It is a masterful recording, done in Toledo's Capilla Mozarabe (Mozarabic Chapel) in the Cathedral, and even without the visual stimulation of the church, the music alone with the magnificent acoustics transports the listener 1,000 years back to days when the Christian Mozarabes developed a rite all their own amidst Islamic controlled Moorish Spain. This disc should be of interest to any sociologist or historian of Spain and especially Spain of the Mediaeval Age. The political and social confrontations of the two cultures - European Christian and Arabic Muslim - produce an exotic result that we may enjoy today.

    The music is first-rate, but if another reason is needed, it is the rarity of this type of recording. A low-priced, excellent disc of this repertoire is, quite simply, impossible to find elsewhere. You may find a track on perhaps one or two other chronological collections of western liturgical music, but no other complete recording exists devoted wholly to the style. Marcel Peres is known for his exhaustive research into authenticity and his drive to accurately record liturgical rites as they were really heard in their heyday - and in this instance he performs admirably. Participate in the Mass of the Mozarabic people and enjoy an experience that will undoubtedly highlight the cultural connection between east and west and may also spark an interest in further exploration of the rite and its times!

        5 out of 5 stars "Wo" Is Wonderful -- and Breathtaking!.......2005-04-02

        Les Charbonniers d'Enfer is one of the premier celtic music groups of all Canada. This album will literally take your breath away. First, how do you classify it? Is it Celtic? Is it old French? Is it the throat-singing of First Nations of the great Canadian north? These five gentlemen will weave rounds, contrast melodies, and tap notes in amazingly complex combinations. Single voices will soothingly call the lead while the collective cadence will draw you out to dance.

        Quebecois Celtic music has been around for centuries -- ever since the first fur trappers took to their canoes and made the vast woods and St. Lawrence their home four centuries ago. They are the patrimony of Beausoleil and other great American Cajun musicians. Les Charbonniers de l'Enfer, however, move at a more romantic and elegant pace then their southern restless, wildcat cousins, their use of traditional Quebecois foot tamping (more than a tap but not as heavy as a stomp) add a wonderful zing and dash that will have you coming back for more.

        This album is marvelously arranged, with each tune laying the melody and footwork for the next. Every song on the album is delightful and each transition from poetic to reflective, reflective to subtle, subtle to expansive, and expansive to exuberant is seamless. Enjoy!

          I first heard this entire album while standing at a listening station in a record store. I couldn't stop listening to it. Ms. Nyolo's voice is light and mesmerizing, and her songs held me from beginning to end. The first cut, "Tribu", begins with her deft vocals in her native tongue of Eton (Cameroon) over the whoosh of ocean waves. It is delightful. Ms. Nyolo wrote all the songs, which range from the celebration of the birth of a friend's child (Shana), to tributes to prodigal sons (Ndongo) to observations on love and womanhood. The rhythmic tunes are powered by handclaps and guitar riffs that flow like water. The songs are foreign and exotic, yet soothing and familiar. I LOVE this CD.

            The first French album by Les Soeurs McGarrigle is filled with wonderful tunes--most of which were written by Philippe Tatartcheff with Kate and Anna doing the music. I love their Quebec French accents. They rightly take their place as highly regarded artists in both languages of Canada. Superbe!
            PS: The same team collaborated on La Vache Qui Pleure in 2004 which is another terrific effort.
