The Ankole Hills suite goes back to a journey to Uganda in 2014. Ankole is a region in the west of Uganda, hilly and mountainous at its edges; the Rwenzori Mountains have peaks higher than 5,000 m. The six compositions reflect sounds and impressions from that journey. They use different rhythms and, in places, scales and voice-leading techniques from African styles of music.
