...there is nothing more beautiful than making music together and sharing cultures...
...it is a joint endeavour, such as regular musical performances in the village. Anyone who makes or is enthusiastic about music can contribute to the village community in whatever way they can...
...every musician controls how quickly they progress in learning their instrument. You are responsible for your regular practice, your instrument, and your contribution to the music group...
...we want to provide young people with a perspective through meaningful musical education, thereby promoting participation, democracy and community...
"Akosiwa" means "born on Sunday" in Ewe, the language spoken in Kusuntu.
In many cultures, those born on Sunday are seen as "lucky children", and in our community, making music is a source of happiness.
Through music-making, we want to promote personal responsibility and self-efficacy in a playful way.
A decisive milestone for our musical vision has been reached. This past Friday, we held our first in-person meeting with the principal, students, and teachers of the local primary school, as well as Togbui, the board member of Ambition Jeunesse, to officially present the planned project for early musical education.
Dates: July 20th – August 2nd, 2026.
Akosiwa e.V.'s vision of opening new life perspectives for the children of Agomé Kusuntu through music has found a strong and reliable partner in the Munich-based association ars musica e.V.
