about

This song was recorded completely live.The Choir opened its doors to everyone in the summer, after the last lockdown and we recorded in September. It is a sequence to the Orisha Yewá. The Orisha who symbolises the cycle of life and decay, decomposition and fertility. Without death there is no life. Yewá is an Orisha that originally came from the Egbado region and is named after the River Yewá.
