Ntjamrosie / Fraanje
A new project with the beautiful Cameroon singer Ntjamrosie.
This exiting duo plays original compositions, songs from the Yengap Tribe, original lyrics in Bulu.
There's a lot of improvisation and there's so much risk involved.
'It's really a playground, sometimes we fall, but we just get up and go on, with a smile.'
Ntjamrosie and Harmen met eachother in Spring 2008 as they were brought together more or less unintentionally to perform. After having performed together it became crystal clear to both artists that this first unexpected meeting wasn't going to be their last one. They both recognized a lot of qualities in each other's music which play a vital role in their personal approach to music.
Some rehearsals followed and they developed an original repertoire consisting mainly of songs composed by Harmen with lyrics in Bulu, written by Ntjamrosie.
At the moment they're gradually expanding this repertoire with new songs.
