About
Twenty years
at the keys.
Ato grew up in Ghana. He started young: listening to music around the house, singing acapella with friends, and teaching himself the keyboard as a teenager. He played in his school and university choirs, and from 2014 to 2019 served as principal organist of One Voice Choir Ghana. A move to Friedensau Adventist University in Germany pulled him deep into European choral repertoire; the highlife he grew up with remains part of how he plays.
