20 February 2024
Experience an evening at the intersection of southern African jazz and indigenous music woven into a tapestry of new sonic horizons. American multi-instrumentalist and ethnomusicologist, Dr Rick Deja, assembles a top-tier line-up of UCT staff and alumni from the African Music and Jazz sections to perform original compositions and arrangements inspired by southern Africa and beyond.
“Uhambo” explores the many ways individuals come together to embrace music and southern Africa as ways to make sense of the larger world and our place within it. Performers include: Keketso Bolofo, Bronwen Clacherty, Rick Deja, Thabisa Dinga, Thembelihle Dunjana, Kolawole Gbolahan, Bonga Mosola and Steve de Souza
