One of the things I love most about living in London is its extraordinary cultural diversity. You never quite know who you might meet next — brilliant musicians and artists bringing their sounds, traditions and stories from every corner of the world.

I recently had the pleasure of meeting the wonderful musician @kadialy Kadialy Kouyate from Senegal who plays the kora, and I’m very excited about what might come out of this encounter.

It feels particularly fitting as I continue developing Portraits of Cities, bringing different musical traditions into conversation and discovering what can emerge when artists from very different backgrounds create together.

I’m already planning some exciting new collaborations with remarkable musicians for the Spring Edition of the Renaissance-21 Festival. More soon — stay tuned.

In the meantime, our Autumn Edition of the Renaissance-21 Festival is just around the corner. This October in London, our musical programme will focus on rare and overlooked works by British composers, bringing remarkable music that deserves to be heard back into performance.

I look forward to seeing many of you there. by @kadialy
