88 edition of Kenya music festivals comes to end with no improvement
Sound of African drum marks the end of 88 edition of Kenya Schools and Colleges music festival in Mombasa with nothing new on the card
Like in the past best groups performs at state house and went home until next years for another political
speeches.
Kenya Schools and Colleges music festival is the biggest in this region have been mooted by colonial
administration with the major objective of promoting performing art among the black and the Whites.
Those days Whites used to perform and Kenya National Theatre and black and Asians and Kaloleni and Kariorkor social hall.
Best groups used to perform to colonial masters same thing which is taking place today 50 years after Uhuru.
Kenya Music festival needs radical change in order to make sure that the festival has center in Nairobi so that best groups from County level comes to Nairobi for festivals.
Instead of best groups performing at state house let have Theater Academy for those talents to join.because best pieces normally goes to waste.
