Musicroom 1: Junior Akwety en Mamadou Dramé (4+)

Musicians Junior Akwety and Mamadou Dramé travel around Central and West Africa, their voices interweaving with the warm sounds of the kora. Energy and dynamism are the words to describe a concert that brings people together and that stimulates all your senses.

Junior Akwety was born in Congo, but his music has taken him from Los Angeles to Cape Town. You can find Junior as a singer and an actor on both the theatre and the concert stage. 

Mamadou Dramé is a virtuoso player of the kora, a traditional West-African string instrument. After many years of musicianship in his birth country of Senegal, since moving to Belgium he has been conquering European stages with ease.
