Festival 2026: Meet the Artists~
Opening the festival on July 15th is Tunde Jegede, a world-renowned composer, cellist, and kora virtuoso, performing his own composition, "Moon Waters." As a child, Jegede travelled to The Gambia to train under Amadu Bansang Jobarteh, Master of the Kora, whose family has carried the West African griot tradition since the 13th century. That journey shaped a singular global voice - one that has since collaborated with the London Sinfonietta, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the Philharmonia, Britten Sinfonia, and the Brodsky Quartet, and commissions from percussionist Evelyn Glennie, among others.
