UCSD Presents Johnny Clegg and Savuka, Zulu Music Ensemble on October 1 UCSD presents Johnny Clegg and Savuka, Zulu music ensemble on October 1 September 13, 1990 Contact: Ruth Bally, University Events, 534-4090 or Alixandra Williams, University Communications, 534-3120 UNIVERSITY EVENTS PRESENTS ZULU MUSIC ENSEMBLE ON OCT. 1 Johnny Clegg and Savuka, a South African music ensemble, will perform at the University of California, San Diego at 8 p.m. Oct. 1, in the Price Center Ballroom. Their music has its roots in Zulu rhythms, melded with EuroAmerican jazz. Formed in 1986, the ensemble has sold more than two million albums in South Africa, including the number one hit, "Asimbononga," and "Scatterlings of Africa," which appeared on the sound track of the movie, "Rain Man." The ensemble's popularity in Europe has led it to appearances in North America, including network television exposure on the Arsenio Hall Show, the Today Show, the Tonight Show, and Saturday Night Live. Clegg has worked with two of the groups musicians, percussionist Dudu Zulu and drummer Derek De Beer, since 1979, when they were members of another very popular South African band, Juluka. Clegg and Savuka (Zulu for "we have arisen") have released two albums, "Third World Child" and "Shadow Man," and have toured extensively, appearing at the famed Montreux Jazz Festival, opening for David Bowie in France, fronting for Earth, Wind and Fire in Germany, and appearing in North America with Steve Winwood. Clegg and Savuka also appeared in the Amnesty International Human Rights' "NOW!" tour, in Abidjan on the Ivory Coast, with Bruce Springsteen, Sting and Tracy Chapman. Michael Lerner of Newsweek says, "Long before Paul Simon ever dreamed of fusing South African music with Western pop on his blockbuster "Graceland" album, Clegg--who was a university lecturer on socio-anthropology in South Africa and who speaks fluent Zulu--was hard at work doing just that. The result is an innovative, energetic mix of African mbaqanga, pop and rock." Tickets are $18 general admission (advance sales), and $19 general admission on the day of the show. (September 13, 1990).

The research and writing of this project was made financially possible through a generous studentship from the ESRC. I also benefitted from the receipt of a completion grant from the Goldsmiths Anthropology Department. Sophie Day took over my supervision at a difficult point, and has patiently assisted me to see the project through to submission. John Hutnyk’s and Sari Wastel’s early supervision guided the incubation of the project. Frances Pine and David Graeber facilitated an inspiring and supportive writing up group to formulate and test ideas. Keith Hart’s reading of earlier sections always provided critical and pragmatic feedback that drove the work forward. Julian Henriques and Isaak Niehaus’s helpful comments during the first Viva made it possible for this version to take shape. Hugh Macnicol and Ali Clark ensured a smooth administrative journey, if the academic one was a little bumpy.

  • A Crash of Drums Durban By
    LAT / LONG: 29.53° S, 31.03° E DURBAN ‘It’s the sound that gets to you A CRASH first,’ says David ‘Qadashi’ Jenkins. ‘A loud crashing of drums before OF DRUMS you even see the dancers. We heard it while we were still on the street, walking towards the hostel. It was 2012 and I’d just moved to Durban from Empangeni. My mentor, Maqhinga Radebe, took me to the Dalton Hostels on Sydney Road to see them dancing. But, of course, you hear it first. That tumultuous crash, a tremendous sound produced on huge marching band drums. You can hear it as far away as Davenport Centre, which is a few blocks up – you’ll hear it on a Sunday if you listen out for it.’ Jenkins grew up in northern KwaZulu-Natal, where he fell in love with Zulu culture. He’s never looked back; his boyhood obsession with maskandi has evolved into a thriving music career. Yet, even after years spent studying Zulu music traditions, he says witnessing Umzansi war dancing left him breathless. ‘The closer we got, the louder those crashing drums grew and eventually we were in the presence of these potent, DURBAN powerful dancers – workers who stay at the hostels and who dance on Sundays. The drumming is the heart of the music, but with harmonies sung over that, incredible war songs running over this loud drum beat. There are up to 20 singers who stand in a semi-circle, and up to ten men dancing at a time. And they move back and forth, swapping out all the time.

  • The Scatterling Rebecca Alderson
    The Scatterling Rebecca Alderson The Scatterlings is a body of work that depicts my family. It seeks to share my family’s story, by making a connection between the artwork and the viewer to encourage them to wonder and question my family’s story. The theme was developed through the love of my family and our cultural roots. My family and I were born in Durban, South Africa; we are immigrants and strangers in this country. ‘And we are scatterlings of Africa, On a journey to the stars, Far below we leave forever, Dreams of what we were’ These are the lyrics from a 1982 song, The Scatterlings Of Africa by Johnny Clegg and Juluka. These lyrics represent my family’s journey to Australia leaving behind our family and safety. As the artist the foundation was making my artwork convey my happy family through bright colours and careless brushstroke techniques while making it interchangeable between any race, age or religion and to showcase my family’s story and journey. I began researching various art styles and painting techniques that would convey the right story. I settled on doing an abstract style of painting. The works of Ben Quilty and Andrew Salgado both used broad brushstroke techniques with bold colours. These artists inspired me with my own work so much I practiced and incorporated their styles to develop my own style. The reason for choosing this style is because of the rough yet playful look with lots of texture. Doing abstract techniques meant that I could use vibrant and vivid colours, while light direction and intense brushstrokes assisted in conveying a playful attitude and composition.

Sunday, April 3 @ 7 PM Zellerbach Theatre Part of the African Roots, American Voices series. 15/16 Season 45 ABOUT THE ARTISTS Johnny Clegg is one of South Africa’s most celebrated sons. He is a singer, songwriter, dancer, anthropologist and musical activist whose infectious crossover music, a vibrant blend of Western pop and African Zulu rhythms, has exploded onto the international scene and broken through all the barriers in his own country. In France, where he enjoys a massive following, he is fondly called Le Zulu Blanc – the white Zulu. Over three decades, Clegg has sold over five million albums of his brand of crossover music worldwide. He has wowed vast audiences with his audacious live shows and won a number of national and international awards for his music and his outspoken views on apartheid, perspectives on migrant workers in South Africa and the general situation in the world today. Clegg’s history is as bold, colorful and dashing as the rainbow country which he has called home for more than 40 years. Clegg was born in Bacup, near Rochdale, England, in 1953, but was brought up in Zimbabwe and South Africa. Between his mother (a cabaret and jazz singer) and his step-father (a crime reporter who took him into the townships at an early age), Clegg was exposed to a broader cultural perspective than that available to his peers.

  • Mirror, Mediator, and Prophet: the Music Indaba of Late-Apartheid South Africa
    VOL. 42, NO. 1 ETHNOMUSICOLOGY WINTER 1998 Mirror, Mediator, and Prophet: The Music Indaba of Late-Apartheid South Africa INGRID BIANCA BYERLY DUKE UNIVERSITY his article explores a movement of creative initiative, from 1960 to T 1990, that greatly influenced the course of history in South Africa.1 It is a movement which holds a deep affiliation for me, not merely through an extended submersion and profound interest in it, but also because of the co-incidence of its timing with my life in South Africa. On the fateful day of the bloody Sharpeville march on 21 March 1960, I was celebrating my first birthday in a peaceful coastal town in the Cape Province. Three decades later, on the weekend of Nelson Mandela’s release from prison in February 1990, I was preparing to leave for the United States to further my studies in the social theories that lay at the base of the remarkable musical movement that had long engaged me. This musical phenomenon therefore spans exactly the three decades of my early life in South Africa. I feel privi- leged to have experienced its development—not only through growing up in the center of this musical moment, but particularly through a deepen- ing interest, and consequently, an active participation in its peak during the mid-1980s. I call this movement the Music Indaba, for it involved all sec- tors of the complex South African society, and provided a leading site within which the dilemmas of the late-apartheid era could be explored and re- solved, particularly issues concerning identity, communication and social change.

  • Apartheid Revolutionary Poem-Songs. the Cases of Roger Lucey and Mzwakhe Mbuli
    Corso di Laurea magistrale (ordinamento ex D.M. 270/2004) in Lingue e Letterature Europee, Americane e Postcoloniali Apartheid Revolutionary Poem-Songs. The Cases of Roger Lucey and Mzwakhe Mbuli Relatore Ch. Prof. Marco Fazzini Correlatore Ch. Prof. Alessandro Scarsella Laureanda Irene Pozzobon Matricola 828267 Anno Accademico 2013 / 2014 ABSTRACT When a system of segregation tries to oppress individuals and peoples, struggle becomes an important part in order to have social and civil rights back. Revolutionary poem-songs are to be considered as part of that struggle. This dissertation aims at offering an overview on how South African poet-songwriters, in particular the white Roger Lucey and the black Mzwakhe Mbuli, composed poem-songs to fight against apartheid. A secondary purpose of this study is to show how, despite the different ethnicities of these poet-songwriters, similar themes are to be found in their literary works. In order to investigate this topic deeply, an interview with Roger Lucey was recorded and transcribed in September 2014. This work will first take into consideration poem-songs as part of a broader topic called ‘oral literature’. Secondly, it will focus on what revolutionary poem-songs are and it will report examples of poem-songs from the South African apartheid regime (1950s to 1990s). Its third part will explore both the personal and musical background of the two songwriters. Part four, then, will thematically analyse Roger Lucey and Mzwakhe Mbuli’s lyrics composed in that particular moment of history. Finally, an epilogue will show how the two songwriters’ perspectives have evolved in the post-apartheid era.
