#SongsOfComfort: Yo-Yo Ma and Angélique Kidjo "Blewu"

  • Share this:

I’m grateful not only for music’s comfort, but for its connections. I heard my friend Angélique Kidjo sing “Blewu” — a dirge for the dead and an anthem of thanks — almost two years ago, and it’s never left me. This is for those we have lost and for those who risk their lives so we don’t lose more.

“Blewu,” based on a traditional Ewe song, composed by Bella Bellow #songsofcomfort
