World Music Gift Ideas

By Deirdre Saravia, host of World Music on KSTX: "From the Heart of Beadforlife" This is a CD featuring the voices of Ugandan women who are fighting their way out of poverty and supporting their families by making beads from the colored pages of discarded magazines. The CD is their first foray into the music scene and they perform with raw emotion and palpable enjoyment. They recorded the entire CD in one day, assisted by volunteer musicians Michael Walters and recording engineer Anthony Maki. The sixteen songs deal with the lives of these women and were composed specifically for this release. Songs are sung in various local languages and English, there is an accompanying booklet with some beautiful colored photographs. You'll find the disc online at www.beadforlife.com a website that is chock full of information about the singers and also shows the beads that are available for purchase. Song samples are also available. (submitted by Christine Saalbach - posted 12/08/06)
