NMMU Jazz Studio Concert
This concert will showcase several ensembles which reflect the diversity of musical expertise that characterises the NMMU music department.
The 18-piece NMMU Big Band is always guaranteed to captivate and entertain. Now in its seventh year of existence, the 2016 incarnation of the band will perform a varied repertoire – including the evergreen Tuxedo Junction, Tsakwe by Abdullah Ibrahim, Classiquando (a fiery Afro-Cuban classic) and the bold and brassy Strumpet (written and arranged by NMMU jazz studies lecturer, pianist and big band director John Edwards).
A quartet featuring Cuan Geere on guitar, Mthoko Mabuza on piano, Tiago Vital on bass and Timon Oosthuizen on drums will also be performing.
