The Project
We want to stimulate some of our stipendiaries and locals to be interested in music and in the long run to be able to develop and conduct music projects on their own. The aim of the project is to establish permanent active choirs that sing African folk songs.
As a first step to achieve this aim, we have formed the “The KAC – Choir”, which is made of stipendiaries who have an interest in singing and are being directed by competent choir instructors. The repertoire of songs will all be Cameroonian. In February 2011, I will be flying to Cameroon to do the recordings. These recordings will be processed by me in our private sound studio in Runkel (near Limburg on the Lahn River). Depending on the amount of the donations, videotaping recordings will also be processed. The entire proceeds of the sales shall be channeled to the Kamerun4AfrikaClub e.V. The project will be declared as closed when the choristers will be able to use their own initiatives to come up with new songs that will be subsequently recorded, processed and sole. The Kamerun4AfrikaClub e.V. will have full jurisdiction over the copyrights.
It is our utmost wish that this project will be a 100% success and that in future, we will be able to broaden the scope of instumentalised performances. For to kick-off, we need start capital. Please click here to read our call for donations from Christof Hinkel.
