OUR STORY
From Local Roots to Global Cultural Exchange
After retiring as CEO of Kampala Music School, a role he held for 12 years, Simon Peter Yiga founded the Pan African Choir in 2013, bringing together children, youth, adults, and seniors through music in Uganda. What began as a community-centered artistic initiative has since grown into a structured platform for cultural expression, talent development, and social impact.
In 2020, the work expanded into an international charity, extending its reach beyond Uganda to engage global communities. Through performances, workshops, and mission-based programs, the organization continues to connect people, nurture talent, and use music and cultural exchange as tools for creativity, learning, and collective growth.
BRIDGING CULTURES & CONNECTING THE WORLD
The Pan African Choir is a vibrant global community of children, youth, adults, and seniors united by music. Founded in Uganda, the choir has grown into an international charity and a movement where participants celebrate cultural heritage, nurture artistic excellence, and inspire audiences across continents.
More than a musical ensemble, every choir segment is a living expression of connection and purpose. Through folk and choral performances, immersive workshops, and mission trips, we use music as a universal language—bringing communities together, fostering healing, and sharing the wealth and depth of cultural traditions with the world.
