Anna Bineta Diouf - Sanctuary (2024) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Even if a CD album is entitled SANCTUARY, it is almost self–evident that it is in the spirit of the sacred: yes, the album is also, but not sacral only in the religious sense - rather sacral and humanistic, sacral and pacifist, sacral and pantheistic, so sacral and so profane at the same time. Prayers are said in all religions to remain in peace and love – this is the only favor that everyone asks from their respective God. And this is the message of all 12 tracks of the album. Because our time demands it of us - to share the values that are most important to people.
The 12 poems set to music, which serve as a source of inspiration, are mainly from the beginning of the 20th century, some more and some less, but all reflect Expressionism and lead to the decisive problems of the last century, which are still very relevant today.

The music is often inspired by Expressionist aesthetics, without adopting the Expressionist musical language; the artist works with stylistic elements that are peculiar to her.

Prayer and humanistic thought run like a red thread through the way the artist builds her programs and albums, this time globally and universally, before they become intimate; a call from the bottom of her heart, like a cry to the gods (in the plural), to all the gods on earth, so that they can save and save us from the abyss of our sins.
