We are proud to present two ensemble performances at the Chimurenga Factory this October – Tumi Mogorosi’s Group Theory:Black Music and Malcolm Jiyane’s Tree-O.
Group Theory:Black Music is the latest contribution from drummer Tumi Mogorosi. It continues the exploration into South Africa’s longstanding chorale tradition from Mogorosi’s debut album Project Elo. Mogorosi is joined by vocalist Themba Maseko, who directs the voices of Busisiwe Phetoe, Forunate Jwara and Brenda Thulo, as well as Andile Yenana (piano), Reza Khota (guitar), Dalisu Ndlazi (bass), Mthunzi Mvubu (alto sax) and Tumi Pheko (trumpet).
Multi-instrumentalist Malcolm Jiyane’s Tree-O continues the sonic tradition set by two of his mentors, Johnny Mekoa and Jonas Gwangwa. His debut album, Umdali, was released in 2021. He will be accompanied by Lungile Kunene (drums), Gontse Makhene (percussion), Nkosinathi Mthunjwa (keys), Ayanda Zalekile (bass).
