Reviews:
Hailed by Time as 'one of the top 10 bands on the planet,' the pop Madagascar group Tarika has created a 10-year retrospective with Tarika:10. Without succumbing to the temptations of electronic and crossover music, Tarika has successfully paid tribute to the language and traditions of the group’s homeland, bringing worldwide attention to the tiny Indian Ocean island.
What makes Tarika especially striking is its talented female leads, sisters Hanitra Rasoanaivo and Noro Rahaimalala. These prolific musicians bring the stories of Madagascar’s political and social challenges and victories to their audience. Tarika’s instrumentation also evokes a colorful, passionate culture. Songs such as 'Koba' - a commonplace pastry made of rice flour, peanuts, and honey - have made the Madagascar way of life better known. Fifteen music tracks are included in the collection, with two bonus Enhanced CD video tracks.
Tarika’s music is powerful, beautiful, and compelling. Play Tarika:10 to inspire customers. - Mara Applebaum NewAgeRetailer - 09/04
