Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Venue: Zellerbach Hall B Price: $24/$34/$46 Subscription Series: Choose-Your-Own, Winter/Spring Mini Series South Africa's cultural emissary has revolutionized choral-group singing and almost single-handedly brought the music of a whole people to the world. It is now nearly 20 years since Ladysmith Black Mambazo acquired superstar status in the West (courtesy of Paul Simon's Graceland album), but during that time, the singers' skills have only deepened and matured—all transmitted through immaculately dovetailed harmonies in dozens of award-winning recordings and thousands of riveting concerts. The ensemble returns following 2005's sold-out engagement at Cal Performances. "Such close harmonies...such subtle nuances...they sounded like one deep, rich, resonant and proud voice" (The New York Times). Program Notes: Program notes are available online, click here.
