Mozart auf der Reise nach Zimbawe (ovvero riarrangiato dagli Zulu´)

I MoZuluArt, che hanno suonato al Tipi qualche mese fa,sono un gran bel progetto. Un gruppo musicale fondato da Roland Guggenbichler (Austria), Vusa Mkhaya  Ndlovu (Zimbawe), Blessings Nqo Nkomo (Zimbawe), Ramadu ( Zimbawe). Mettono insieme la musica di W.A. Mozart e i canti tradizionali degli Zulu Africani, cio´che ne viene fuori e`una felice quanto insolita commistione di ritmi caldi e cadenzati e melodie cristalline, che non si fondono ne si sovrappongono tra loro ma dialogano.Insomma quella strana musica un po´lenta e noiosa diventa grazie ai Mozuluart trascinante e colletiva.Mozart stara´sicuramente tamburellando nella tomba...


" When the three guys from Zimbabwe were growing up in the dusty roads of Bulawayo and listening to traditional music and pop music from their local heroes Ilanga, Lovemore Majaivana, Fanyana Dube, Solomon Skhuza they never imagined that there was a thing called classical music in this world. later in their teenage years when they went shopping in big departmental stores in town or when they passed outside a hotel they say "there was this funny music that was always playing which they thought was slow and boring", little did they know that one day they will be the ones who will be singing, writing new texts and re-arranging this music they once called "slow and boring"
