In a sure tonic for the winter blues Oumou Sangaré graces the stage of The Queen Elizabeth Hall this November in a one off show curated by the Aga Khan Music Awards and EFG London Jazz Festival.

With symphonic support from The BBC Concert Orchestra, expect exquisite vocals and pentatonic perfection from Malian musical royalty.  Opening the gig are the finalists of this year’s awards which fittingly celebrate the preservation and revitalisation of musical heritage – something Oumou has been about since her 1990 World Circuit debut Moussolou solidified her reputation as “The Songbird of Wassoulou.”

If you see only one gig during this year’s impressive city wide festival see this one.
