Sporting a green tarboosh hat, Aaron Sukura from the west African country created music from the gyil -- a xylophone with gourds under it.

Osei Korankye played the seperewa -- a form of harp -- and sang folk songs about a protective father and his daughter.

These musicians are instructors at the Institute of Performing Arts at the University of Ghana. This was their first performance in Asia.
