UPCOMING LIVE PERFORMANCES AND LECTURES:
Please join us for Masauko Chipembere, who uses music to connect with his ancestral traditions from Malawi while expanding on them with aspects of hip hop, beat poetry, and jazz. He will be opening the PAMLA conference with an autobiographical performance utilizing live music, video, and narrative. Masauko will share how the ability to move through various cultures from Los Angeles to New York, Malawi, Costa Rica, and South Africa has broadened his music. It has helped him to create a syncretic sound that resonates with folks around the world. Light refreshments will be served.
