Opera singer Nomusa Yende is set to feature in the eighth Arts Alive Joburg Choral Festival.
The event will take place on May 11 at the Joburg Theatre in Braamfontein.
Nomusa, also known as Sasa, has been in the industry for almost a decade, and has performed throughout the country, the Sadc region and Mississippi in the US.
She said the audience can expect a journey through different emotional worlds.
“I’ve chosen three contrasting arias that each reveal a different facet of the human experience: passion, vulnerability, and joy. My goal is to fully inhabit each piece, not only vocally but emotionally so the audience feels every shift in mood and character. It’s about storytelling through music, and I want each aria to feel like its own little universe,” she said.
Sasa is busy with the South African Schools Choral Eisteddfod.
“This is the season for schools competitions. I am adjudicating from province to province and working with a few choirs in preparation for the competition. I am also busy with preparations for the eighth annual Joburg Choral Festival, and preparations for international singing competitions which I cannot disclose.”
