Balgarianovinite.com Speaking at a press conference in Borovets on Tuesday, Cameroonian musician Richard Bona said that he had begun writing a song inspired by Bulgarian rhythms that morning. He will close the Dr. Emil Iliev International Jazz Festival in Borovets later in the day.
Bona shared a story from years ago when he fell asleep on a plane and began hearing voices. “I opened my eyes and heard all the passengers singing. It turned out they were the performers from The Mystery of the Bulgarian Voices,” the musician said, expressing his admiration for the beauty of Bulgarian songs.
He said that while he continues to play guitar, the bass remains his main instrument. Bona noted that for many years he had played the organ in a church where his mother was a singer, and that he later began singing himself.
Bona said he performs music that comes from his heart, adding that he had gone through a very intense period in his career that helped him grow as a musician.
“Throughout my journey across Europe, America and the world, I learned one thing: the people who should inspire you are different from you,” the musician said. He added that the people he admires embrace these differences. Bona said that throughout his life he would remain a student, noting that he never learned to sing or play music in a formal way, but simply grew up with music.
