Good to be amongst friends and people who understand the appeal of the simplest instruments on earth. I posted a video clip on YouTube. You can access it if you search for MadoJazz.
Madosini is going to be available in Europe between the 7th and 17th of July. If you hear of any festivals or possible workshops anywhere, she will be accompanied of a little group of musicians including a translator (she speaks beautiful isiXhosa only).
I practice many traditions of song and singing diphonique for more than 30 years. I lived in France for Lyon.Je makes me each year in Siberia to Tuvinian to deepen my technique.
I founded the group "Phenomenon". We are eight votes capella men.
I visited your site very interesting. I am glad to know you.
I do not speak English, so I translated the message with the translator of Google.
Sorry if this is not perfect.
With my attention,
