Passion Congo – Ray Lema Ensemble Partage, 2026

Le Bananier bleu has listened to and endorsed Ray Lema’s latest album. To mark his 80th birthday, the Congolese composer, pianist, singer and arranger brings together his African and European influences in Passion Congo, recorded with a classical string ensemble. The result is a cultural fusion, a celebration that reminds us that, when it comes to music, it is always a matter of variations on a single language.
