Photo: Hanna Kangasniemi I’ve visited Namibia for three times working in local projects in the field of music education and artistic work in cooperation with Oruuano of Namibian Artists’ Union. The workshops and concerts in Windhoek & Ovamboland (2001-2004) have been unforgettable. The latest cooperation has been music-dance-production “HOPE.” The production was performed in Windhoek and in Vantaa year 2004. The work was carried out as a co-operation between Vantaa Dance Institute and the cities of Vantaa and Windhoek.
The Friendship Inn is as it’s name suggests. I’ve spent there many a good time enjoying the relaxed atmosphere and interesting people. Musicians like to visit the Friendship Inn; I’ve joined in several spontaneous jam sessions. The concerts arranged on the covered lakeside terrace have a unique atmosphere enhanced by the beautiful setting.
In addition to Sibyl Vane, the other Irish-style band I am a member of is called Shebean. We have had a long break since the members of the band have had other activities - but beware: We might come back! Further information on the band can be found here
