Lisa Williams
Come and hear about Edinburgh's long historical links with Africa and the Caribbean through music. Join Lisa Williams, historian and founder of the Edinburgh Caribbean Association, to hear stories of the African drummer at the Royal Court of King James and Black classical composer and abolitionist Ignatius Sancho who visited Edinburgh in the 1770s. The lament sung by enslaved workers in Barbados, brought home by a young Scot, and the local tune written to support American orator Frederick Douglass will remind us all of the power of music!
