Joel Rabesolo

Madagascar is renowned for its exceptional wealth of biodiversity, home to the largest number of endemic species in the world. Equally fascinating is the diversity of the Malagasy people's origins, stemming from a unique blend of African, Southeast Asian, Indian, and indigenous roots. This cultural mosaic is reflected in Malagasy music, colorful, original, and profoundly unique.

Joel Rabesolo, a traveling musician, resonates ancestral sounds of the island through his instrument. His style is a metamorphosis: a dialogue between forgotten traditions and modern harmonies.

'Onjam-panahy' is a solo instrumental work, evoking dawn, by turns melancholic and subtly melodic. Carried by an imaginative harmony, the piece is adorned with spicy rhythms with exotic accents.
