Swedish innovation seeks to revive traditional Kenyan music sounds

Kenyans can now listen and play digitally sounds from traditional instruments by visiting a gallery or the nearest national museum.
This is thanks to a new technology from Sweden called Music Sample Bar, which was recently launched at the Swedish Embassy in Nairobi.
Before then, many would only hear instruments like orutu, chivoti, bung o, wandindi or eshiriri at national celebrations or rare traditional ceremonies.
The Sample Bar is the first one in Africa and currently there are only two at Swedish Museum of Performing Arts in Stockholm, Sweden.
