Sudan Archives
This performance was recorded on March 11, 2020. We will continue releasing Tiny Desk videos of shows that had already been taped. In light of current events, NPR is postponing new live tapings of Tiny Desk Concerts. In the meantime, check out Tiny Desk (home) concerts! They’re recorded by the artists in their home.

Os homens passam e o meu som parou
perder o cansaço é forma de acordar
Os homens passam e o meu som parou
perder o cansaço é forma de acordar

By contrast, Parks was living on the streets, playing piano in flophouses, hanging around nightclubs and pool ...
