TESTIMONIALS

I’m tremendously excited to think of young singers without direct access to classical music training using this application.

Joyce DiDonato

Singers

nkoda is really clever; it's like a view into the future of making music.

Sir Simon Rattle

Conductor

Frederick Delius was born in Bradford in 1862 and died at Grez-sur-Loing, near Paris, in 1934. Besides an enormous output of choral and instrumental music he wrote six operas, and in Act II of the third of these, a Negro opera, ""Koanga"" (1895-7), slaves on the plantation sing and dance ""La Calinda"" at the wedding festivities of Koanga and Palmyra. This dance is adapted here for concert purpose.
