Heather Maxwell's trip rekindles fond memories of Nairobi

It has been eight years since American vocalist, composer ethnomusicologist and broadcaster Heather Maxwell visited Nairobi, and so her return last week proved to be an opportunity to appreciate the city’s thriving culture and the ecosystem that supports it. 

“I was struck by just how smoother things were from the last time I was here,” says Maxwell who spent the week interviewing artists for her Voice of America (VOA) radio and TV show.
