For decades under President Omar al Bashir's hardline rule, musicians in Sudan found it difficult to hold concerts. Some were even banned, or went into exile. After the revolution which ousted him last spring, many are returning to their homeland to perform. Jazz musician and actress Rasha Sheikh Eldin is among them. She has just returned from Spain, where she lives, to hold a series of concerts in in Khartoum. She has been telling Newsday what was it like performing in a new political climate of her home country.
