About this concert
In September 2019, Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita travelled to Prince Edward Island on the maritime east coast of Canada to meet and collaborate with Vishtèn, a powerhouse multi-instrumental trio and flagbearers for their unique Acadian musical tradition throughout the world. In 2020, that collaboration comes to the UK in a one-off tour that features sets by both artists plus a very special set featuring new material by Catrin, Seckou and Vishtèn together.

“Kora that rocks” Montreal Gazette
"The Hendrix of the Kora" Music News
With a big African Heart, virtuoso Senegalese kora player Seckou Keita is not to be confined to any one genre, dipping comfortably in and out of jazz, classical, Flamenco, with sometimes hints of rock and reggae. He takes us on a musical journey of imagination and human emotions. His superb musicianship, dexterity and diversity has transported audiences from any walk of life to places they had never imagined they would go.
