Although Oumou Sangare and her band spoke very little English, their presence on stage said it all for them. Their colourful music matched their dancing, beautiful smiles and Oumou's outfit! Their lively style had the crowd intoxicated from the start and cheering louder and louder as the set went on.

For me, the outstanding performance of the weekend. Stunning voice, gorgeous to look at, wonderful songs and superb musicianship. Could have happily listened to another hour or so.
I had never heard of her before but that's the diversity I like about Cambridge. It was good to see world music played with enthusiasm and colour by a top class act.
