Join us for Yoruba Sonnets at Wolfson College with Grammy Award-winning Lekan Babalola.
The Yoruba Sonnets pair spoken word poetry and mime from Dr Olu Taiwo with live music from Lekan Babalola's Sacred Funk Quartet. The result is a unique performance of ancient Nigerian verse incorporating Afro-beat music and the contemporary sound of Western Funk.
Tickets are free but booking is required.
This event is sponsored by Creative Multilingualism, a research programme funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council which aims to make languages more visible, valued and vibrant.
