Dear friends, we are very excited to share with you the (re-)vision of our movement.
The name is inspired by Ora, short name for Aurora, a beloved cyclope giraffe that has been with our group of musicophiliacs throughout the whole musical journey that we embarked on some time ago. It was only natural that the movement’s name should be a tribute to her.
Batuque’s initial aim of exploring the percussive drum rhythms of Africa and its Diaspora has now grown beyond that. Through the promotion of up-and-coming artists from around the world, people we connect with and appreciate, people with whom we share our passion and love for every sonic endeavour, Our Ora aims to transcend musical boundaries and encompass a wider range of artistic expressions.
Stay tuned for our online event happening next week, with dj sets and live music streamed from Cyprus!
Much love,
Our Ora 🦎
