I have long been intrigued by the haunting music from Gauthier Flauder’s documentary on the Ennedi Massif, “The Sahara’s Secret Garden”. The much can be heard by doing a Google search for the film.
I was disappointed to learn that the music was not authentic indigenous music, but rather, music composed for the film by the French musician Benoit Pimot. Does anyone know whether the music was based on some indigenous music?
