S6 Ep1| PIDGIN POWER part 1: uniting audiences through opera
In this two-part episode, we speak to two inspiring women who are central to this opera - Helen Epega, also known as the Venus Bushfires, who composed and wrote Song Queen: A Pidgin Opera and is the lead vocalist in the performance.
And Louisa Adjoa Martin who has over 20 years’ experience as an opera singer performing with symphony choruses and is a soprano voice in this opera.
‘Song Queen: A Pidgin Opera’ celebrates the power of song, honours African cultures, and is a uniting force that champions languages, dialects and slangs that are considered by some to not be the standard.
The music in this episode is made exclusively for AKADi Magazine by Kyekyeku and the Super Opong Stars and is called 'Life No Dey Easy'.
