The German record company Bärenreiter started in the beginning of the sixties of the previous century the first series of what was later to become no less than six different series. The various series covered mostly Asia, but also Africa and Oceania. I have already posted the list of items published in their catalogue for the Premiere Anthologie de la Musique Malienne in this post here.
This post is the second, and that each will attempt to list all of the titles that I am aware of from each series. The Unesco Collection was the first, and started 1961 under the editorial direction of the french musicologist Alain Daniélou.

Just wanted to say thank you once again for sharing this wonderful music, too much of which I've enjoyed without taking the time to comment. Blogs like these have expanded my understanding of humanity to an astounding degree.
Have you read the book "Sounding the Depths"? It was published as a another labour of love in blog form and is still out there for all to enjoy. It is one of the most interesting writing about traditional/folk/world music I have ever come across.
Right now I'm listening to the track from Kasebe Anatole from your Hugh Tracy guitar record. What stands out is the beautiful langorous feel which makes a lovely contrast in this slow-paced piece to the other more upbeat numbers.
Thanks and stay strong!
Thank you so much! :D
