World Connections: Momi Maiga
Momi Maiga brings a captivating blend of Senegalese musical tradition and contemporary global influences to Glasgow. A virtuoso of the 22-string kora, as well as a gifted singer and composer, Maiga creates rich, expressive music that bridges cultures and generations. Drawing on the Mandé griot heritage of his family, his performances weave together intricate kora melodies, soaring vocals and influences from jazz, flamenco and West African traditions, creating a sound that is both deeply rooted and strikingly modern.
Audiences can expect an evening of warmth, rhythmic vitality and emotional depth, where virtuosic musicianship meets storytelling and connection. His acclaimed recent work explores themes of migration, resilience and hope, delivered with a powerful stage presence and remarkable sensitivity.
