Songo was the creative idea of Mauricio Vengas-Astroga & Rachel Pantin. Mauricio and Rachel work as part of a larger organisation called Musiko Musika, who aim to bring the,
“wonderfulness and remarkable diversity of the worlds cultures to London…We do this by working with children, young people and families, and the schools, children’s centres, nurseries, communities in which they live, with arts and community venues large and small, festivals, music education hubs and universities to create unique and outstanding music and cultural projects that celebrate what we have in common as human beings, give a voice to individuals and improve our everyday lives.”
