Concert The Goethe Winter Music Series 2024 featuring Nobuhle Ashanti Trio and Destination Unknown.
Some people seem destined for their future, for the path they’ve chosen in life. I can think of no young South African artist who exemplifies this better than Nobuhle Ashanti. She doesn’t just play the piano, or perform, she lives and breathes her art, something which becomes immediately apparent from her fantastic repertoire of songs and live concerts.
Ms. Ashanti is a proficient pianist, composer, session musician, educator, and lover of South African Jazz. Her love for music bloomed early, due to being brought up in a house with Jazz constantly being played by two musician parents, her mother playing sax, and her father, Sylvester Mazinyane, being an international Jazz pianist. Nobuhle is the current recipient of the Goethe Mobility initiative that will see her play four Goethe Institutes on the continent in October 2024.Destination Unknown
A stretch music ensemble exploring the convergence of tradition, culture, history and identity. This exploration through improvised sound, looks into sonically carving a path to the “Unknown”, a place of familiarity.
