MADOSINI The Queen herself...Her first STREAM

ABOUT

Madosini is undoubtably the master of bow music. A long career that has taken to her to all corners of the globe, she has continued to share her unique mastery of Xhosa music and her own compositions, stories, abundant energy and magical ability to conjure multiple voices from the mouth bow and gourd resonated bow.


We filmed Madosini doing a one hour concert last month in The Forge in Kalk Bay. We chose this venue as it was the location for her only solo release, recorded ten years ago in The Forge by Derek Gripper and Alex Bozas.

Madosini had some health problems on a tour in France at the end of 2019 and this performance shows her back in full swing. She says she owes the recovery of her voice to a surgeon in the Eastern Cape who told her to take snuff for a week. The result is the songbird in full flight again. And this was captured beautifully in one of her finest performances.


The stream will be available for one week starting on the 5th of January 2021 and ending on the 15th of January. When you buy your ticket you will get instant access for this time period.
