MoZuluart
is a project that was founded by Roland Guggenbichler (Austria), Vusa Mkhaya Ndlovu (Zimbabwe), Blessings Nqo Nkomo (Zimbabwe), Ramadu (Zimbabwe). MoZuluArt is an outstanding live act that is supported by musicians of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra. Their offering is unique: a fusion of traditional Zulu music with classical music based mainly on Mozart compositions and South African harmonies, which became famous all over the world thanks to Ladysmith Black Mambazo and Paul Simon. The program "Township Serenade" is not only based on Mozart compositions any more but also integrates composers like Maurice Ravel, Joseph Haydn and Johann Sebastian Bach. "We try to fuse these two music styles in a way that leaves room to the original song and style and not absorb a lot from it so that it stays with its authenticity." "Music is and has always been a unifying factor around the world, bringing together people from different backgrounds, races, ethnicities and of course, traditions. It is through music that people get to know and understand other cultures and develop a liking to adopt into that culture." Read more ... |
