Staged yesterday at the CCESCA, the tribute concert to the duo Vola sy Noro drew a large crowd, captivated by the interpretation of the legendary duo’s greatest hits.
The melodies of Vola sy Noro continue to resonate across multiple generations. Yesterday, the remake of the tribute show, first presented last December, was a resounding success at the CCESCA. Many spectators, primarily adults and seniors, were present to relive the songs that marked the history of Malagasy music. Throughout the nearly three-hour concert, the emotion was palpable. The audience sang along, applauded the artists warmly, and requested several encores.
On stage, the descendants of the two singers faithfully brought their mothers’ rich repertoire back to life. Jérôme Randria, a former backup singer for Vola sy Noro, played a central role in this family interpretation. The artists were accompanied by seasoned musicians, including guitarist Solo Andrianasolo, who had previously collaborated with the famous duo. Singer Voahirana also appeared on stage as a guest.
The concert revisited several iconic titles such as “Ho Anao,” “Eny,” “Hirahiram-poko,” “Imaintsoanala,” and “Very Maina.” The lyrics, projected on a giant screen, allowed the audience to sing along and fully share in this moment of nostalgia.
This new performance is the result of several months of preparation. Since the first tribute, the descendants have engaged in numerous listening sessions, discussions with musicians, and rehearsals to best recreate the musical universe of Vola sy Noro. Despite some apprehension before taking the stage, they expressed their joy at the enthusiastic reception from the audience, confirming the success of this remake.
The show also held a surprise for the spectators with the performance of four previously unreleased songs by Vola sy Noro. Having passed away in August 2003 and December 2012 respectively, the two artists continue to pass on their musical legacy through their children, who perpetuate their work with emotion and fidelity.
