Berima Amo

Bio

The Amsterdam based Ghanaian Highlife music maestro, Berima Amo is a trumpet master who has become an ambassador for West Africa's rich musical traditions. He has five albums, two EPs, and six singles available on all music digital platforms. With a desire to see young Africans incorporate indigenous drums and acoustic instruments into new music, Berima spearheaded the "Highlife Restoration Project," which consisted of workshops, radio and television interviews, band coaching, and artist grooming. He established Osaberima Big Band in 2021, the first in West Africa since the last one closed 30 years ago. With three well-received music singles and various performances, this initiative has literally resurrected an era of big band music in West Africa.

Berima Amo has collaborated with the king of Highlife music Nana Ampadu, Music Stages, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Fonds Podium Kunsten, Konrad Koselleck Bigband, ZO Gospel Choir, Shirma Rouse, and the Dutch National Opera & Ballet, to name a few. His home base is Amsterdam Zuidoost. Because of its cultural diversity, it holds a special place in his heart. Berima Amo is endorsed by Schagerl Music GmbH, an Austrian brass manufacturer. He plays a custom-made Schagerl Spyder trumpet.
