    About This Release:
    Masters of Batá is a studio recording of 6 performances of the group Abbilona, a collective of musicians from Cuba internationally recognised as one of the leading Yoruba music ensembles today. Percussive, choral and inherently spiritual, this album is a deep dive into the sound of the secretive Santeria rituals of Havana. The session took place at ICRT studios (Havana) in November 2012 and the album is now released for the first time.
    The man leading the 30 percussionists and singers of the group Abbilona is Irian Lopez, a master Batá drum player and a Babalawo (a spiritual title given to the High Priests of Ifá). He's considered by many as one of the the most influential figures in the folkloric music tradition of Havana. He and his brothers are the creators of a prominent style of Rumba called the Guarapachangueo. Over the years Abbilona's musical influence has extended to a large following of percussionists, who visit them from all corners of the world to study the drum, the complex poly-rhythms and to get closer to the mystical Santeria community.
    The sacred drums, the rituals, the playing techniques, are all elements of a strong cultural heritage that's been transmitted from generation to generation within the collective, honouring the Afro-Cuban music, the Orishas and, one of the most ancient drums in the world, the Batá.
