HENRI DIKONGUE
A legend of the African Folk tradition. With finesse, he combines his melodies with the present and the future.
Henri Dikongue author of the global hit "C'est la vie" is on tour with solo, duo or full band configurations.
The sound journey into the musical universe offered by Henri Dikongué takes the music lover from the confines of bossa nova (Bekusedi) to the biguine (Souffrir d'aimer) to the makossa (Kaba Ngondo) and the more rhythmic style of (Mabola).
We also find pieces with jazzy-rock sounds (Mulatako, Spirit to Arno). For the happy nostalgic of the first musical works of Henri Dikongué, they have not been forgotten. Titles such as (To na tè nde misea) are engraved for eternity. We never get tired of these "Dikongian" harmonies, between linearities and breaks, accentuated by the singer’s very particular lyrical flights, which precede whispers, whispers...
Faithful to his musical tradition, but also rich in his diverse experiences, he is attentive to the zeitgeist.
The clean, acoustic, organic side, which we know gives pride to more electric and current sounds, more complex arrangements, contemporary harmonies... In a word, a musical and scenic dexterity that will delight your audience and festival-goers.
