English: The Swiss Music label “Face Music” offers an international programme repertory with original music and its roots from various different cultures. Publications are based on existing field research records, which have been revived or which are performed by the doyens of this type of music. The studio records, in combination with live performances and workshops in schools, form the basis and are to be conserved for the next generation as well. Hence, Albi’s collection offers well-documented and comprehensive insight into the lives of these people through their lively conserved music and traditions. So far, this label has published music from Georgia, Armenia, the Ukraine, Egypt, Mongolia, Togo (Western Africa), Uganda (Eastern Africa), Brazil (Southern Brazil), Argentina, and Russia. . The collection comprises Slaw and Cossack songs, collected in Siberia, throat singing songs from Turk tribes and Mongols, songs of the Altai tribes, and so on. It furthermore includes a great amount of information on these peoples, their forms of living, and their rituals and rites, also published in the internet, e.g. steppe nomads, masque dances (tsam), handicraft, Tengerism or Shamanism, migration of the Bantu tribes, Madi and Hamites in Black Africa.
