The Gangbé Brass Band is a 10-member Beninese musical ensemble founded in 1994. The word "gangbe" means "sound of metal" in the Fon language. They blend West African jùjú and traditional Vodou music with Western jazz and big-band sounds. Their unusual instrumentation---trumpet, trombone, and tuba, along with West African percussion and vocals---is, to some extent, part of West Africa's colonial legacy; French colonial officers imported brass instruments and trained local musicians to play European-style military and dance hall music. Gangbe has released four albums: Gangbe (1998), Togbe (2001), Whendo (2004) and Assiko (2008), and tours extensively in Europe and North America. ==Discography== ;Albums *''Gangbe'' (1998) *''Togbe'' (2001) *''Whendo'' (2004) *''Assiko'' (2008) *''Go Slow to Lagos'' (2015) ;Contributing artist *''Cicada'' (2011) *''The Rough Guide To Voodoo'' (2012) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gangbé Brass Band」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
