[ Cheers and applause ] -My mission is to tell the story of the violin, the many stories that haven't been told.
Basically, it's been such an oversaturated, Westernized view on the violin, but it's not.

The violin is Celtic, the violin is rock 'n' roll.
The violin is so many things.

And it roots back to, like, years in Africa.
My first string instrument that was traditional was from Ghana.
I've incorporated the Ghanaian ones in my music, and basically, these are dying instruments because not a lot of people make them or play them anymore.
Some people in Japan or Ghana, if I tell them about these instruments, they're gonna be like, "I don't even know what that is."
