Description: "Afro-Atlantic Legacies is the product of research conducted at Indiana University in 2012 and 2013 with funding from the Brazilian Ministry of Education's CAPES Foundation. Its primary objective is to give back to the religious communities involved the sound and photo archives collected by the African American linguist Lorenzo Turner in Bahia in 1940 and 1941. This double CD aims to show Brazil a previously unknown side of the work of that Black Atlantic pioneer after 77 years, retrieving an edited and commented selection of songs, prayers, and stories sung and recounted by Martiniano do Bonfim, Menininha do Gantois, Joãozinho da Goméia and Manoel Falefá, among other historic figures in Afro-Brazilian culture--illustrious representatives of one of the most beautiful and fascinating African diaspora religions in the Americas: Candomblé."--Page 9.
