\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Richmore Tera And Vhindo Murira<\/p>\n

28 April 2011<\/p>\n

\n

BULAWAYO-born Busi Ncube will close this year’s edition of the Harare Festival of the Arts with music and dance at the Coca-Cola Green stage.<\/p>\n

Hifa, which is being held under the theme “The Engagement Party”, will see Busi engaging award-winning Mozambican saxophonist and composer, Ivan Mazuze.<\/p>\n

The diva is one of the most talented female musicians who have put Zimbabwe on the map through their commitment to music.<\/p>\n

She was influenced by African traditional music, which she fuses with contemporary genres like jazz, rock, funk and disco.<\/p>\n

Busi, who honed her talent by playing with the now-defunct Ilanga Band that consisted of stars like Andy Brown and the late Don Gumbo, among others – rose to fame with songs like “True Love” before forming her own group, the Band Rain.<\/p>\n

In 2002, Busi joined the international group, Women’s Voices, and performed with Mari Boine apart from receiving the Nordic Council’s Music Award a year later.<\/p>\n

The singer added another feather to her cap in 2005 when she received the BBC 3 World Music Award after performing with renowned Somali musician Maryam Mursal at Oslo Mela.<\/p>\n

Mazuze will be performing at the Lay’s Global Stage from 3.45pm and jazz lovers should look forward to melodies from Mozambique from this extraordinarily talented star whose music is a blend of African chopi, muthimba rhythms, marabenta, maskanda and Latin jazz.<\/p>\n

No wonder Ivan was nominated for the Best Contemporary Jazz Album at the South African Music Awards last year.<\/p>\n

From Italy is the diva Paolette, who has put her country on the map with her infectious contemporary rhythms that are steeped in rock.<\/p>\n

The artiste from Milan will host a concert at 7pm at the Lay’s Global Stage.<\/p>\n

Backed by the Living Room Band, the performance has been billed as “unique music experience”.<\/p>\n

Of course, there are various other acts expected to make the closing day as exciting as possible.<\/p>\n

The closing night, like the opening ceremony, has also been one to look forward to and show-goers will be in a party mood and bid the festival farewell for another year in style.<\/p>\n
