The British Council is inviting the general public to On Mass, a special jazz performance that is part of UK/Nigeria 2015–16, a major season of arts work.
The event, a partnership with Call to Create, will feature a unique jazz performance by The Art Ensemble of Lagos and the MUSON Jazz ensemble in collaboration with Vidal Montgomery and Wayne Francis II from the UK.
The ‘Call to Create’ network was established by the Roundhouse, UK, to showcase the talents of young artists and to encourage collaborations between established and emerging artists around the world.
“One of the ways of showing the fusion of cultures is music,” said Ojoma Ochai, Director of Arts, British Council Nigeria. “On Mass will showcase the beauty of blending the cultures of Nigeria and the UK through jazz.”
The event is on Thursday, September 10, 2015 from 6pm to 8pm at Agip Hall, Muson center 8/9 Marina, Onikan, Lagos.
