Happening this Saturday, October 15th, at Duke University, in Durham, North Carolina. 

It is my first time there and I am very excited about this concert. I am presenting my most recent work, Encounters and Collisions, with text by the amazing Italian-Somali writer Igiaba Scego. The beautiful thing is that Igiaba is in the U.S., in Durham, for a residency and I will get to meet her for the first time. She will also listen to the music I wrote for her story!
