Njinga the Queen King the Return of a Warrior:
A powerful music theater work, Njinga merges sumptuous layers of contemporary and traditional song, dance and music to tell the real-life story of an extraordinary 17th century African regent. Written and directed by Ione with original music and sound by Pauline Oliveros. This live recording is derived from the BAM Next Wave Festival performances of 1993. Includes bonus features Ancestral Voices (a film by Stephen Barnwell) and Peak Moments by Victoria Kereszi.
