"My name is Eliupendo. I come from Monduli, but when I study I stay in
a boarding called Little Africa. I am 11 years old and I am a Chagga.
My father is a choirmaster and my mother is working in the church and
sings in the choir. I would like to play piano and guitar like my
father, my mother likes singing most. I also like singing with my
parents. We like to sing gospel songs together very much. The
instrument I like to play most is drums, because when we sing in the
boarding we use drums most of the time. I like traditional dance and
listening to songs. In my future I’d like to be a nurse or a singer."

"My name is Leah. I come from Malambo in the Northern Maasailand but
for now, I live in Little Africa and go to school in Arusha. I like to
stay here because we learn so many different things. I am 14 years old
and I am a Maasai. My father is a pastor and my mother is a
choirmaster. I like music very much because I can sing. Sometimes we
have the possibility to use instruments in our boarding. I’ve started
learning piano and I know how to play the drums. I also want to know
how to play the guitar. I really like listening to music, especially
gospel songs. In future I’d like to be a singer like Upendo Nkone
because I like her songs very much."
