Abel Selaocoe - Emmanuele (Official Video)

Enjoy the groove of Emmanuele, the first single from cellist, vocalist, and composer Abel Selaocoe’s upcoming album – Hymns of Bantu (February 2025). In Abel’s words: “Emmanuele comes from a South African Hymn of the same name - Emmanuel being the name for Jesus or God - and is dedicated to people who work with their hands. Often they can be dismissed, yet they make the world we are all a part of. The piece follows traditional Western four-part harmony but incorporates African rhythm, starting with a simple bassline and growing into something that makes you dance.“ Manchester Collective (Reduced Strings) Abel Selaocoe (vocal, cello, percussion) Fred Thomas (piano, percussion) Alan Keary (electric bass) Sidiki Dembele (percussion) Dudù Kouate (percussion) Listen on Spotify: Follow Abel for updates: YouTube: @UCjQJvvG1cwFjjmJZ7MAu3Qg Instagram: Tik Tok: @abelselaocoe Newsletter: __________ Warner Classics ► Website: Subscribe to our: ►Youtube - ►Newsletter - Follow us on: ► Facebook: ► Instagram: ► Twitter: ► YouTube: @WarnerClassics Listen to us on: ► Spotify: ► Apple Music: ► Deezer Warner Classics is the home of classical music, featuring iconic high audio quality recordings from the greatest classical legends, opera stars and orchestras of the last century.
