Workshop with Stella Chiweshe – 3 – 4 PM
Stella Rambisai Chiweshe is not only a performer, but also an educator. She offers workshops in different aspects of the art as a way to preserve culture. She offers workshops in traditional music, using instruments that play a pivotal role in the lives of the Shona people: Mbira (thumb piano), tribal drums, percussion and voice. The combination gives a sensational rhythm to this music. In Aalst she will focus on the voice as the first and foremost human instrument and present voice training accompanied by the traditional songs in her language Chizezuru. “Voice is the first instrument that almost everybody has, and can use freely. If one can talk she or he can sing as well” All instruments imitate the voice. Stella persuades and frees the inner voice. Once the inner voice is persuaded to come out, then it gives itself a direction!
