Angélique Kidjo With Special Guest Red Baraat

Dubbed Africa’s premier diva by both NPR and Time magazine, Angélique Kidjo transforms every genre she tackles — and she’s taken on quite a few. Though she won a Grammy for “Best Contemporary World Music album,” she has turned music from the Afropop, R&B, soul, gospel, jazz and Latin traditions into something more vibrant and altogether new. Ranked alongside Nelson Mandela, Haile Selassie and Kofi Annan as an “African icon” by the BBC, Kidjo is equally famous for her human-rights activism. For this concert, she’s teaming up with Brooklyn-based band Red Baraat for an international fusion of Afropop sounds, North Indian Bhangra rhythms and New-Orleans-style jazz.
