Inspiriert durch Bartoks Mikrokosmos und der Musik Afrikas hat der südafrikanische Komponist Michael Blake mit seinem "Afrikosomos" einen beeindruckenden Klavierzyklus geschaffen, der wegen seiner unterschiedlichen Schwierigkeitsgrade sowohl für Anfänger als auch für erfahrene Klavierspieler sehr reizvoll ist.
Afrikanische Fünf- und Sechston-Skalen, obertonbasierende Harmonien und Polyrhythmik erschaffen immer wieder neue, verblüffende Spiel- und Hörerfahrungen.
