Dominic's song

 Dominic is an immigrant from Senegal, West Africa, who has been living in Padova in Italy for a number of years, performing as busker in the same spot every single day. We had been enjoying listening to his beautiful voice and songs from his home every time we visited the city for several years until last year we finally stopped and spoke to him to hear a little bit of his story. 

He's a fixture of the musical life of the city, and it wouldn't sound quite the same without him - and we were really happy to hear that he's going to be working on an album soon. 

Recorded by Cities and Memory.
