Lutumba Simaro

The Mystical Era is a harmonious collection. The best works from this series are strange, melancholic, but always attracting to their enchanting magical archaic romance. The collection contains all the gamut of mystical moods, from impressionistic tendencies with oriental shades to motives of ancient spiritual knowledge, from acoustic chamber academic music with a minimalist bias to ethnic music of different peoples and eras. All this magnificently shines with the names of the creators: Gregorian, Keiko Matsui, Era, Enigma, Dellirium, Lyra, etc.

The Congolese guitarist, singer, bandleader and composer Francois Luambo Makiadi—most commonly known as Franco but with a raft of other nicknames including The Grand Master and The Sorcerer of The Guitar—had by the time of his death in 1989 dominated the elegant but gutsy genre of Congolese rumba for over two decades. Born in 1938, he had been the biggest African music phenomenon of his age.
