Piwai's sound encompasses all the rhythms she dissected from the amazing artists that she has graced the stage with, in various capacities from Africa and the world over. Of particular note to the entire African Turquoise project, nuances of music from Zimbabwe, South Africa, Mozambique, Democratic Republic of Congo, Nigeria, Cameroon, Kenya,Tanzania, Senegal , Mali, Brazil, China, San Diego and Oakland. Piwai’s “African Turquoise” is passionate and vital music that embraces and expands upon the richness of Pan-African traditions. Do yourself a favor and experience it.-KAMAU KENYATTA, Grammy Award Winner, producer, musician & educator. In a cybernetic world that is increasingly blurring borders, African Turquoise fabulously combines ancient folklore with contemporary pulse and feel. Stellar job, Piwai!!!Congratulations- ALLAN PHILLIPS, EMMY® winner, Grammy Nominee, Composer, Producer & Percussionist.
