The World Wind Band combines the diverse and colourful sounds of Asia, the middle East, Africa and Europe. Jan Hendrickse and Dirk Campbell on traditional wind instruments are joined for this concert by Tunde Jegede on Kora and cello and Nathan Thomson on Bass and flutes.
Their music is a fusion of ethnic and contemporary sounds which encompasses traditions from all over the globe. These include music from as far afield as Armenia, Azerbaijan, Korea and West Africa. In Malta they will be presenting a programme titled ‘Listen to the reed and the tale it tells’, which is inspired by the writings of the 13th century Persian poet Rumi.
The band will perform on January 23rd, 2007 at 1930CET, at Manoel Theatre, Valletta.
