WoCalling to perform at The Mannenberg

This stunning collaboration of eight outstanding women vocalists and seven gifted musicians from Zimbabwe and Norway, took Harare by storm during the recent Harare International Festival of the Arts (HIFA), with both performances sold out, leaving many fans disappointed, and the lucky ones hungry for more.
By popular demand, WoCalling (Women Calling) will perform at The Mannenberg in Harare on Monday evening, with original WoCalling compositions borne from this unique collaboration, together with dance and poetry, and the divas will also draw from a repertoire of famous Jazz standards which have inspired them all.
Wocalling Regional, a local version of an extended international collaboration project, is co-ordinated by Norwegian singer and musician Cecilie Giskemo, who is currently attached to the Zimbabwe College of Music.
The production comprises the following amazing Zimbabwean and Norwegian singers and musicians, poets and dancers: (on vocals) Dudu Manhenga, Prudence Katomeni-Mbofama, Hope Masike, Fallon Richardson, Ruth Mbangwa, Kundisai Mtero, Adiona Maboreke, Cecilie Giskemo; (instrumentalists) Tor Åge Schunemann (tuba), Filbert Marova (piano), Andrew Mamvura, Hope Masike and Cecilie Giskemo (mbira), Fenton Zimba (marimba) and Rumbidzai Tapfuma (congas); for this show joined also by Vee Mukarati (saxophone) and Enoch Piroro (bass); (dancers) Tsitsi Tizora, Soukaina Edom, Maylene Chengerai; and (poets) Aura, Dikson, Flowchyld.
