Lexington Community Education presents: Soiree Musicale with Brice Kapel

Let musician, recording artist, and educator Brice Kapel take you on a journey to Porto Seguro, the African port village where his mother was born southwest of Lomé in Togo. Brice combines songs by U2, Daniel Lanois, Sting and Peter Gabriel, with his own very personal African beats in pop, folk, rock and world music. His songs carry messages and images from his early childhood and tell the story of Brice’s life, through his French and Togolese cultures. He tells of his early years on the red soil of Africa, of the people he has met around the world, of his disappointments, joys and discoveries.

Brice sings in French, English and his native language, Mina. His songs refer to youthful dreams but also to deeper subjects like love, education, life, family, nature, and the loss of loved ones, especially his father and younger brother. Through his songs, you will hear the emotions of an immigrant child as he comes of age in his beloved new country, France, with nostalgia for his roots, as well as the sensitivities of a grown man with an overwhelming desire to share his story.

The event will be held on Saturday, April 8 at 7:30pm at the Waldorf School of Lexington, 739 Massachusetts Avenue, Lexington. The cost is $10.00.

Pre-registration strongly recommended. To register, using a VISA or MasterCard, please contact Lexington Community Education at 781 862 8043.
