Winter Jazz Festival

A MIXED bag of music from different worlds will characterise tonight's slot of the ongoing Winter Jazz Festival that kicked off in Harare yesterday.


Revellers will be spoilt for choice as three maestros who are on top of the music game in their respective genres - Oliver Mtukudzi, Suluman Chimbetu and Winky D - are joined by upcoming "hot property" Munya

Mataruse to rock the crowd that will descend on the City Sports Centre tonight.
The crowd will no doubt rock and sway like no other when they join Tuku, Bigiman, Sulu for a night of musical bliss and dance among friends and Harare socialites.

Mtukudzi, still basking in one of his finest moments ever, following the conferment of an ambassadorial role on him by Unicef, will no doubt be out to do what he knows best.

The Katekwe exponent is also expected to come to the show with his batteries highly charged to dish out his catalogue of hit songs taken off his two new albums, one of which was launched in South Africa recently.

Sulu, or simply Mwana Wedangwe, is another sure-fire artiste, who without doubt, will mesmerise music lovers with his enthralling music as well as energy-sapping dances, backed by his Orchestra Dendera Kings outfit.

Sulu - who has a hit album "Non-Stop" to his name, will also take revellers down memory lane with a string of golden oldies by his late father Simon Chimbetu.
If you thought dancehall or ragga music would not make it to a jazz event, then you should look out for Winky D's delivery.

The artiste, who is fresh from his tour of Malaysia, is on top of the world and will leave no stone unturned in making sure that he lives up to his title of "Ninja President".
Mataruse, on the other hand, is gradually joining the ranks of the music gurus in Zimbabwe.
