  • About Face! March Forward to HIFA 2010
    About Face! March forward to HIFA 2010 27 April to 2 May It’s time to build stamina and get ready for the excitement, thrills and creative delights of HIFA 2010 – ABOUT FACE, 27 April to 2 May. This joyful, action packed carnival extravaganza remains Zimbabwe’s most positive, most life and art affirming annual event. It has survived the many challenges of the past decade and forged ahead proudly, demonstrating all the best facets of what makes a Zimbabwean a Zimbabwean - industrious, fun-loving, humorous, serious, generous, welcoming, hospitable, and above all, always ready and able to “make a plan” to find their way around obstacles and challenges. These fine qualities have meant that the Festival has happened year by year regardless of difficulties, bringing light to our lives and offering an artistic and cultural beacon on our horizons to which we all eagerly look forward. Turning ABOUT FACE, and from a new vantage point, we can focus on turning things around in our lives and country with hope and optimism. In both our artistic expression and in wider society, HIFA’s theme inspires a positive approach, a resurgence of hope, and taking a new angle. With this intriguing theme ABOUT FACE, HIFA encourages Festival Goers and Artists alike to take a different view, choose another vantage point, look at things with an inquisitive new eye. The theme explores the notion of viewing our worlds from new perspectives or angles, of changing directions, of marching boldly forward, turning things around - perhaps even on their head! Like many of HIFA's themes in the eleven years of this great Festival's existence, ABOUT FACE is designed to provoke thought, catalyse new ideas and be open to interpretation.

  • Opera's Top Sellers
    In his hometown of Modena, Italy, Luciano Pavarotti was laid to rest Sept. 9 at a funeral that attracted more mourners than any other commemoration in Italy since Pope John Paul II's death two years ago. The funeral for the tenor, who died of pancreatic cancer Sept. 6, was broadcast on RAI state TV, and brought together a group of friends and admirers that spanned from Bono to former United Nations secretary general Kofi Annan to Italian prime minister Romano Prodi. ¶ The turnout came as little surprise to those who knew the singer. " Pavarotti and I actually used to argue about who was more globally famous: him or the Pope," says Chris Roberts, president of Universal Classics and Jazz International and chairman of Universal Classics Group (US), the label group that includes Decca, Pavarotti s 40 -year recording home.
