She couldn't stop believing, she couldn't stop dreaming. “This art which was supposed to destroy her, rather kept her alive…” Today, she is there, with her music and her guitar; although she would have liked to play with the one her late father gave her 15 years ago. It is with these memories that she now draws her life, that she worked on this album, the preface to her career...

“ Praefatio ” is CÉLINE BANZA 's 1st album… Signed with Bomayé Musik Africa, she unveils this opus rich in sound, for which we let ourselves be lulled by the soft and beautiful voice of this rising star of African music.

This is an album of great musicality, as the accompaniments in no way steal the show either from the performer or from his melancholic melodies; his studies in ethnomusicology positively boosted his creativity. In addition, she made the choice to highlight her culture and her identity, by singing in her mother tongue, Ngbandi. This is Céline's musical preface… “ Praefatio ”, we will remember it for a long time!
