Kenneth, I wanted to make sure you saw this. There has been intensifying conflict and instability unfolding in Sudan, amid a power struggle between Sudan’s top military leaders.

Sega music culture - Workshop and Stages Proposal from Yoan Catherine

My name is Yoan Catherine, and I am a guitarist, singer, and composer from Mauritius Island. I am reaching out to you today to share a proposal for workshops and masterclasses focused on our unique and vibrant Sega music culture.

As you may know, Sega music originated among the slave populations of Mauritius and Réunion Island and later spread throughout Seychelles Island. It is a fusion of African or Malagasy music with European music, including folk dance music like polka, waltz, and quadrilles. Until the Mauritian Ti Frère became popular in the 1960s, Sega was only played in private places. It is now considered the national music of Mauritius and is popular across several other islands.

I have extensive experience in composing, performing, and promoting Sega music. I was one of the founders of the mulaeo band on Mauritius Island, and I released my first album called "Dime nwa gete" in 2013, which is now very well-known in the Mauritius island community and throughout all Mauritian Diaspora Community present around the world.

Recently, I collaborated with Uruk, who has over 25 years of experience in original and authentic world music creation, to explore the different aspects of music fundamentals.

He introduced me to his research on world music, especially about how our traditional Sega encompasses a wide range of unknown genres.

Together with Olivier Degrace and Fabien Ramalinga, we are open and free to share our music culture in workshops and masterclasses if we got the chance to perform on any live stages dedicated to world music.

I would like to invite you to check out my social media links and video clips to get a better sense of my work. I would be more than happy to provide further information or discuss this proposal in more detail.

Please feel free to contact me via email or phone if you have any questions or comments.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Best regards,
Yoan Catherine

Francis Jocky

Multitalented singer, songwriter, producer & actor, Francis Jocky is something of an enigma, an artist with universal appeal and blessed with a unique voice. Raised in Paris, France and now living in New York City, Francis Jocky has developed a sound that transcends borders.

 

He’s rapidly becoming an international personality, sharing the microphone with the likes of Bono of U2 and Stevie Wonder, just to name a few.

 

From an early age he learned to express himself through music and by the age of twelve had begun playing piano and writing his own songs. 

Francis Jocky has a wonderful duality as an artist, which probably has its roots in his combined educational and musical training. He is the recipient of a Ph.D. in International Relations from the prestigious Sorbonne University in Paris, France, combined with being a critically acclaimed musician and artist.

 

Over the years, Francis Jocky continues to participate in high profile concerts. He was involved in the MIDEM music conference in Cannes and shared the stage with music genius Stevie Wonder (in Monte Carlo). The responses from the shows were overwhelming and the media hailed him “The New Sensation.” Thus he was invited to play the Nemo Music Festival (as part of the Boston Music Awards). Francis is also involved with the festival "Tout le Monde Chante“, which takes place twice a year in Paris at the mystic Olympia Hall and in Aveyron (the South of France). The festival showcases France’s entertainment VIP’s, all participating for a non-profit organization which helps children with cancer.

While his recorded music is remarkable, live performances are his strength. During a live performance with Bono, Bono remarked, “Francis, you are a star!”
