  • Joseph Shabalala Vice Radio Bantu
    the 1987 Grammy for Album of the Year. Ladysmith Black Mambazou, too, would Swansongs win Grammy Awards—five in all, the last in 2018 for Shaka Zulu Revisited: 30th Anniversary Celebration as Best World Music Album. They would also collaborate with the likes of Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, and Mavis Staples, and appear in the Michael Jackson filmMoonwalker . They earned a Tony nomination for their score for the 1993 Broadway play The Song of Jacob Zulu, in which they performed as a chorus. And that same year, they accompanied Nelson Mandela to Oslo when he accepted his Nobel Peace Prize. Bhekizizwe Joseph Siphatimandla Mxo- veni Mshengu Bigboy Shabalala was born on Aug. 28, 1941, on a white-owned farm near the town of Ladysmith, out in the hills of KwaZulu-Natal, where his parents, Jon- athan Mluwane Shabalala and Nomandla Elina Shabalala, worked. Joseph, the eldest of eight children, left school at 12, after his father died. As a teenager, he moved to Durban to work in a textile factory and sang in local vocal groups—the Durban Choir Swansongs and The Highlanders. In 1959, he formed Ezimnyama, which he renamed Ladysmith Black Mambazo. They featured several of Shabalala’s brothers and cousins singing. The mbube and isicathamiya music that the all-male group sang originally emerged from the mining camps and industrial worksites created by migrant workers toiling far from home. Singing late into the 1947-2019 night, they established harmony singing contests to relieve their after-work boredom. These contests played a significant role in the development of traditional choral music 1941-2020 in South Africa.

  • Suoni Della Murgia Nel Parco
    PARCO NAZIONALE DELL'ALTA MURGIA ASSOCIAZIONE SUONI DELLA MURGIA presentano Suoni della Murgia nel Parco È una rassegna completamente nuova quella che nasce dal sodalizio tra il Parco Nazionale dell'Alta Murgia e l'associazione Suoni della Murgia. L'idea è quella di riportare il piede al passo sulle pietre e sui tratturi della Murgia, recuperando quel rapporto ancestrale con la terra, i silenzi, i paesaggi e le voci della natura viva che abbiamo perso con la frenetica modernità. E di farlo unendo natura e musica in un progetto unico nel suo genere in tutto il mezzogiorno d'Italia. Per questo, sono bandite le auto e si privilegia il contatto fisico: runners, trekkers, ciclisti, passeggiatori, osservatori degli spazi saranno i principali fruitori di questo progetto. Il progetto Suoni della Murgia nel Parco parte dal radunare musicisti da tutto il mondo sulla Murgia barese, impegnandoli in concerti all'aurora, al crepuscolo, alla sera, nei luoghi naturalistici più belli ed affascinanti del Parco Nazionale dell'Alta Murgia. I concerti saranno tutti ad impatto zero, eseguiti in acustico ed inseriti nel circuito delle masserie del Parco. Tutti gli eventi in programma saranno raggiungibili esclusivamente a piedi ed in bici, accompagnati nel percorso dal punto di raccolta al luogo dell'evento dalle guide del Parco. Il punto di raccolta fungerà da parcheggio per le auto. Gli itinerari per cicloturisti, runners ed escursionisti saranno realizzati dal Parco dell'Alta Murgia e collegati agli eventi di Suoni della Murgia. Ad ogni evento, il Parco abbinerà una delle masserie del Parco per la promozione e la degustazione dei sapori e dei prodotti locali.

    The following article appears courtesy of Paul Kotapish, a musician in Open House, The Quirks, Hillbillies from Mars, and more recently, Wake the Dead. Paul is also a writer, illustrator, and web editor; in the words of Matt Kramer at Acoustic Guitar, he's also a " heckuva nice guy as well!" Paul generously sent this article ' ready to publish ' to Irish Bouzouki and for that we are very grateful. Thanks Paul! ANCIENT TONES The bouzouki’s long journey from rembetika to rock ’n’ roll and beyond By Paul Kotapish copywrite 2000 Mention the word bouzouki, and people think either of Zorba the Greek or G.I. Joe’s favorite weapon. The cognoscenti might conjure images of smoky tavernas, free-flowing retsina, and crockery flung in abandon. Some Celtic music fans would associate the bouzouki with Irish jigs and reels, but few would link it with bluegrass and old-time hoe-downs, and virtually no one would make the leap to Swedish fiddle tunes, rock ’n’ roll, and jazz. But the bouzouki has found its place in all these musical styles, and it’s popping up more and more in the hands of guitarists. GREEK BEGINNINGS The bouzouki’s roots extend back to the long-necked lutes of ancient Persia and Byzantium. The earliest bouzoukis are very similar to the contemporary Turkish saz, and the bouzouki appellation was probably derived from the Turkish name for the mid-sized bozouk saz. The saz family of instruments is characterized by bowl-shaped backs (often carved from a single piece of mulberry wood); long, thin necks with tied gut frets; a free-floating bridge; and three double or triple courses of wire strings.
