In this, our 12th Episode we showcase African classical music. TUNDE JEGEDE is a musical maestro who has mastered the cello and the west African kora. He explains how his training in both instruments has inspired him to produce a style of music that combines elements of African and western classical genres resulting in a unique sound that is thrilling global audiences.
Along with some of the finest young musicians on the continent, like DAVID ETIM and VINCENT HAASTRUP, Tunde has created the NOK Orchestra which was recently performing and recording in London. He has given Africa Here and NOW exclusive access to some of the extraordinary tracks before they are released. You can hear them in this, the final Episode of Season One.
