Sunday 29 November. SeekArt presents Thembi Dunjana at Cape Town Jazz Club.
Thembi Dunjana is an award winning Cape Town pianist, singer and composer, and one of the most distinctive voices in the city’s jazz scene. Both of her albums have won Mzantsi Jazz Awards, the second of them recorded in New York, and she has taken the music to stages in America and Europe. Her sound starts in black indigenous music and moves into contemporary culture. In her own words, “culture is continuously changing, and the music should also be doing the same”.
