Maputo in the house! Mozambican poet Tina Mucavele and composer Miguel Xabindza (guitar, voice) present their ‘word-song’ at Tagore’s next Wed 9 Jan, from 9.30pm. As always the show will be broadcast live – hit the ‘Listen to the live stream’ link on the left to listen in.
Alternating between dreams of hopefulness and retribution, and nightmares of greed and desperation; fed by the spirits of Ama Ata Aidoo, Ben Okri, Alice Walker, Ngugi Wa Thiongo, Tina Mucavele’s spirited conscious raising word-songs give voice to the people, ghosts and injustices she’s encounters in her travels around the African continent, Europe and South America.
