In 2020, Armonico Consort developed a partnership in Kenya to bring our Choir Creation programme to local organisations working with street children and vulnerable young people. The musical heritage of Kenyans is such a precious part of their community, and they were generous in sharing their songs with us.

This amazing experience inspired us to create a programme of both traditional and contemporary African songs from across this diverse continent, which we look forward to sharing with you.

Performed by AC Academy children’s choirs, local schools and workplace choirs, and accompanied by a small professional band, drummers and dancers from Kenya, this promises to be a totally uplifting celebration of African music.
