Angelique Kidjo en Stuttgart

A powerful voice, a colorful dress, and a sense of rhythm that could make even statues dance, Angélique Kidjo takes over the stage of the Jazzopen Festival in Stuttgart, Germany! The Benin-born singer combines a magnetic stage presence with a talent for composition, and a dose of wit for good measure. The five time Grammy winner graces the audience with interpretations from her 2021 album Mother Nature—whose title-song she co-wrote with Sting. Surrounding herself with up and coming musicians from the next generation of superstars, Angélique Kidjo excells in genres as varied as afrobeat, hip-hop, and rhythm 'n' blues, while remaining attached to traditional Beninese music and her own message of hope.
