Welcome to a guided tour of Lukas Ligeti's work done in collaboration with musicians in or from Africa. This program, consisting in part of excerpts from works accessible in full elsewhere on this site, will give you an overview of Lukas' innovative approach to cross-cultural creativity, which led to his approach of "experimental intercultural collaboration".
