Oludele Olaseinde and pupils at New Park Primary School, Kensington, Liverpool
Oludele Olaseinde (right) helps schools to discover the vibrancy of Nigerian music

Making music

Listen to the item

The Olaseinde family want to bring the colours, the music, the culture of Africa - to Liverpool. Originally from Nigeria, they came to Britain thirteen years ago. Dad, Oludele is a musician who has taught his two teenage daughters the folk songs and lullabies of their homeland.

Our reporter Kim Normanton went to meet them and was welcomed into the family home by mum, Gloria, dad, Oludele and younger daughter, Yatunde.

Kim also joined Oludele, along with an accompanist, on one of his regular visits to a local school.
