Johnny Hagen of Absolute Music traveled to Mali, Africa to record sound for the documentary Mrs. Goundo’s Daughter. Barbara Attie and Janet Goldwater of Attie & Goldwater Productions, hired Johnny along with cinematographer Peter Brownscombe to work on this moving documentary about the traditional practice of female circumcision. The crew explored the beautiful country and people of Mali for two weeks in December of 2008. Plans are to return in September 2009 to continue work.
Johnny Hagen is back from Rome, where he recorded a choral performance written by Stephen Edwards. David Haugland was the director of this documentary for release on PBS and Italian Public TV. Cinematographer Tom Adair and producer Julie Hartley were among the crew capturing this classical music event, Requiem for my Mother.
