Patrick Kabanda: musician, teacher, speaker, cultural ambassador

"Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music – the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself." – Henry Miller


Patrick Kabanda travels the world performing organ concerts, conducting musical workshops, and researching the role music plays in social and cultural contexts. He has performed in some of the largest venues in London, New York, and Hong Kong and worked with students and teachers in cities and villages in Rwanda, Sudan, and South Africa.

A native of Uganda, Patrick is more than just a musician. He is a citizen of the world, uniquely qualified to serve as an international cultural ambassador. Through music, he helps people reconnect with their own rich cultural traditions and explore important social issues ranging from environmental challenges to poverty and human rights. For Patrick, music is not only a form of entertainment, but a vehicle for communication, education, and enrichment.
