Description

The “Missa Luba” is a version of the Latin Mass based on traditional Congolese songs. It was arranged by Father Guido Haazen, a Franciscan Friar from Belgium, and originally performed and recorded in 1958 by “Les Troubadours du Roi Baudouin”, a choir of Congolese children from Kamina. The first recording, which dates from 1958, features solo vocalist Joachim Ngoi and was released as an album on the Philips label in 1963.
