Ka Malisa, an introspective into the music of southern Madagascar, his own birthplace.
During the past three years, Kilema has been touring the main Ethnic and world Music Festivals in spain.Kilema's continued investigation and diffusion of traditionnal Malagasy music has encouraged him to produce his second Album Lavy Tany (Far away from his land), released during 2003 and opens himself to the musical exchange between the South of Madagascar and Andalucia.
The latest production of this artist "Mena" (Red) will be available
in 2008. In this new opus, kilema's melody and his musicians
take you to the sweet landscape of the big Island.
Wherever he goes, Kilema carries the magical, rhythmic soul of Madagascar
