A folk song cycle about England's involvement with the transatlantic slave trade by Reg Meuross & Suntou Susso

Acclaimed songwriter and storyteller Reg Meuross tackles the history of England’s involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, unearthing both incredible tales and uncomfortable truths of a history which needs to be told. 

Featuring the sparkling playing of kora master Suntou Susso, these stories are brought to life in a stunning folk song cycle of moving and thought-provoking songs, alongside narration on the background to each piece by actress, musician and composer, Karen Gledhill..

 "If ever there was evidence that music can be used to speak truth to power, then this album will in time sit as testament to that fact. From a British man of colour, a personal thanks must go to Reg Meuross and his team for taking on this subject matter." Ifi Umoren – FATEA

Running Time: 100mins + interval
