In a special world music feature, the Rupununi Music & Arts Festival two weeks ago on August 15 saw musicians from Senegal, Belize, Haiti, France, Chile, Ukraine, the UK, India, the US, and Suriname perform in a virtual concert.
The festival, which attracts performers and patrons from all over the country and the world at large, was cancelled last year as a result of the pandemic. In the light of the ongoing situation, the coordinators decided to host virtual concerts of live and replayed performances in December last year and has continued this every two months since then.
