Coup de pouce – Manuella Montanary – CD 2 titres
<p>
These two tracks are born from a desire of playing music again with my family. I wrote the lyrics on my cousin Alioune Agbo’s music, former guitarist of Miriam Makeba; we played on stage together in Abidjan… in the Eighties. Luc Montanary, also my cousin, played a clever and delicate bass. Dona Myrette, another cousin, and Julie Pierquet, my daughter, put their soft, sensitive and warm voices on the backing vocals.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The first song is in French. “Ná yì bó wă”, in fon (language from Benin, West Africa), means: “I leave, I’ll come back”. Backing vocal respond in an echo “Ná yì bó wă” and “Bó yì bó wă”, meaning “Go and return”.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
The second, “Forgiveness”, is in English. In my quest for forgiveness, I have reached this conclusion: “Love is forgiveness”, and I have put it into words.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Recording was made at home and Alioune Agbo with his expert’s ear did wonders! Raoul Agbo, guitarist, singer and… of course cousin, realized the mastering.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
A family venture, which I’m in a hurry to have discovered by as many people as possible, and promote among professionals to whom, obviously, I must send this beautiful project (sample CD) for free!</p>

<p>
Desing is ready :</p>

Dear Friends, dear unknown Friends,</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
This sum is necessary in order to complement the financing of my first CD whose launch is scheduled in November 2014.</p>
<p>
Why two tracks only? Because a smaller recording is most appropriate for the professionals prospecting.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Recording, mixe, mastering and design are already made.</p>
<p>
The 600 € will be used for:</p>
<p>
– payment of mechanical reproduction rights (SACEM-SDRM) (220€);</p>
<p>
– CD pressing of 500 units in carton sleeves (540€).</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
If your generosity goes beyond, the money collected on top of this sum, it will finance a first clip and possibly allow the recording of other songs!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
I trust you to make this project known and to spread the word around you.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Very big THANKS for YOUR support!</p>
