FantastiKE, by the Nairobi Orchestra, brings together two phenomenal Kenyan soloists and a monumental symphony in 5 movements. Nanjala Antonia will grace the stage with Haydn?s Piano Concerto in D Major while Judah Onesimus will shine in the B?hme Trumpet Concerto. The second half of the program takes you on a trip to the innermost part of a young genius' soul in the midst of unachievable ambition; the quest for true love. The composer, Hector Berlioz, wrote his Symphonie Fantastique in his early 20s in 1830 and created a spectacular work that resounds to this day.

Colour Untamed by Katie Simpson

Katie Simpson is a Kenyan painter whose work is an act of witness to the animals, landscapes, and fragile ecologies that shaped her from childhood. Born in Kenya and formed by an artistic environment surrounded by nature, the colours and textures of Africa have never left her. They are the ground from which everything else grows. Colour Untamed brings that lifelong conversation into full focus. Her paintings are ethereal explorations of the earth’s fragility and wildlife’s vulnerability, attempts to catch fleeting moments before they vanish, subjects held briefly in abstracted, luminous space. There is urgency in that impulse. Kenya’s wild places are changing, and Simpson paints in response – not with polemic, but with something more tender and more lasting.
