Tlokwe Sehume on his cultural masterpiece "The Village Square"

Tlokwe Sehume has dedicated a significant portion of his life researching, understanding, practicing, teaching and challenging society's take on INDIGENOUS MUSIC. Those who know him always and without a shadow of doubt attest to how Sehume takes our culture, tradition and heritage way too seriously to take short-cut to popularity or an uninformed following. Best among his musical achievements is a project titled Medu-Nakeng which assembled a never seen or heard before ensemble that reflected the depth and wealth this country possess in ethnic or indiginous music. His latest work is a show called The Village Square and it focuses on language and music using among other things - praise poetry, indiginous African classical instrument and forgotten languages like Xun. The show will be on at the Market Theatre in Newtown, Johannesburg between the 19th and the 22nd of January 2017.
