The Tabernacle is a Grade II-listed building in Powis Square, Notting Hill, west London, England, built in 1887 as a church. It is no longer a place of worship, but continues to serve the secular needs of the local community. It's a key part of the multicultural hub of Notting Hill, with people from many different countries, backgrounds and cultures sharing the space. In this recording, a steel band is performing on a Sunday afternoon. 

Recorded by Cities and Memory.

Part of the Migration Sounds project, the world’s first collection of the sounds of human migration.
