Following on the acclaimed 'Where is Home' and 'Hymns of Bantu', two genre-defying albums, 'Four Spirits' is also drawn from Abel's South African roots and seeks to create a communal experience with the audience through cello concerto, percussion, singing & improvisation. His first solo cello concerto and, formally speaking, a concerto cast in four movements - each movement takes an essential aspect of township life: ancestors, children, faith and community. Selaocoe positions himself as chief storyteller, combining cello improvising with lyrics in the Southern Sotho and Zulu languages. Four Spirits (Orch. Woodgates): I. Masebego [Live], Four Spirits (Orch. Woodgates): II. Bana [Live], Four Spirits (Orch. Woodgates): III. Tshepo [Live], Four Spirits (Orch. Woodgates): IV. (A) Simunye. Uthando [Live], Four Spirits (Orch. Woodgates): IV. (B) Simunye. Malibongwe [Live]
