A Triumphant Second Season. #KICF23 

 

In March 2023, over 150 students from East Africa came together for 10 days of workshops, masterclasses and performances across Kenya.

 

From the lush landscapes of Lake Naivasha to sold out performances in Nairobi at the National Theatre of Kenya, the Kenya International Cello Festival welcomed over 1,200 audience members to take in the program's rich selection of classical, traditional and contemporary musical works.

We thank  you --  our friends, partners and supporters -- for being an integral part of KICF 2023 and your commitment to making music make a difference.
