SPECIAL PROJECT: COLLABORATION WITH THE SAN PEOPLE, BUSHMEN OF NAMIBIA.
On the 5th of November 2016, we embarked on a musical research in the Kalahari Desert of Namibia. Our aim was to find out more about the musical traditions of the San (‘Bushmen’) communities living in the area of Tsumkwe, the largest town in this desolate area. After intensive research we found a group of four grandmothers with a beautiful and diverse repertoire. Their rhythms and polyphony are highly complex and has us left with lots of homework. During the trip we collected audio-recordings and video material. We’ve seen that the elders are in charge of these rich and complex musical traditions, which reflect the world philosophy of the San people. It has been an incredible experience so far and we are proud to announce that we will continue with a full scope research in collaboration with the Museums Association of Namibia. June this year we will return to the Kalahari to collaborate with these four San grandmothers on recordings and performances together. We look forward to sharing this rich and valuable culture with the world.
