ONE-DAY ONLY: Zimbabwe Singing Workshop with Bruce Ncube (WOMAD)
About this Event

After the success of Bruce's last workshop in November we are please to invite him back to the Birch Community Centre.

This workshop will start at 10.30 am-3.30pm and we will stop for a 30 min lunch break. From 3.00pm we will invite friends and family to attend and share the songs we have been working on.

Bruce Ncube is a Zimbabwean musician with over 15 years of touring and traveling the world teaching and performing in some of the world's biggest stages such as WOMAD/African Drum Village (Scotland) Edinburgh International Festival/Aberdeen International Youth Festival/ World Music Workshop Festival.


Bruce specialises in teaching traditional songs from his native country Zimbabwe in 3 to 6 part harmonies. His teaching is in the traditional way where people would gather around a fire,at weddings, parties and even funerals and start weaving harmonies. His approach is entirely inclusive and participatory. The songs he teaches are emotionally charged and uplifting carrying messages of hope, inspiration and togetherness.
