Edinburgh Tradfest: Bruce Ncube Zimbabwean Singing Workshop

Bruce Ncube is a Zimbabwean artist who specialises in teaching traditional songs from Zimbabwe in 3 to 6-part harmonies. The songs and harmonies that he teaches are emotionally charged and uplifting, designed to build participants confidence with singing. His method of teaching is the traditional oral/aural way and is reminiscent of when people would gather around a fire in the evenings, or whilst working in the fields and start weaving harmonies. The workshops are inclusive and participatory, and one does not need to be experienced in singing to take part in them.

Here's what a recent participant said - "Wow, what an amazing day spent learning to sing in a group with Bruce. He is just a natural at making you feel instantly at ease and confident to sing your heart out. Personally, I was inspired, moved and uplifted by this experience, it felt almost spiritual too. Highly recommend Bruce to anyone. Looking forward to seeing him again and taking part in more singing. He’s inspirational! Thank you Bruce"
