Singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Kenya, Rapasa Nyatrapasa Otieno is a virtuoso of the nyatiti, a traditional eight-string lyre from the shores of Nam Lolwe (Kenya’s Lake Victoria). The music he creates is deeply rooted in traditional storytelling from the Lüo community, nilotes who also settled in Western Kenya and who are known to play the nyatiti.
Flautist Rowland Sutherland, known for his versatility having developed an international career in many fields of music from jazz to contemporary classical, will perform African art music for flute by the Ugandan composer Justinian Tamusuza.
