2pm – 3pm: Adriano Adewale Itaúna – Echoes of Naná
Widely regarded as one of the most influential percussionists of the twentieth century, Naná Vasconcelos transformed the role of percussion in contemporary music, bringing voice, body and percussion together.

Adriano Adewale Itaúna is an Afro-Brazilian percussionist and composer who has been deeply inspired by Naná Vasconcelos’ musical language, exploring the artistic philosophy that shaped his legendary work.

4pm – 5pm: Akolá Tambó
Akolá Tambó is a pioneering traditional bullerengue music and dance group. Founded in the UK, Akolá Tambó celebrates the ancestral rhythms and songs of Afro-Colombian bullerengue, a genre rooted in the coastal communities of Colombia’s Caribbean region.

6pm – 7pm: amarílis
The Portuguese polyphonic singing choir amarílis honours the legacy of the mondadeiras: women who traditionally sang together while working in the fields across rural regions of Portugal.

The London-based women’s choir has grown from ongoing work in Portugal, extending it into a London context with the aim of expanding the reach of these nearly lost folk songs.
