Rising star of the classical music world Abel Selacoe has paid tribute to the late Tanzanian music legend Hukwe Zawose in 'Zawose', the latest track from his forthcoming debut album.
Selacoe said his new single was “in gratitude to master traditional musician Hukwe Zawose and the people of Tanzania for playing an important role in South Africa’s victory over the oppressive regime of Apartheid.”
Abel Selaocoe is redefining the parameters of the cello. He moves seamlessly across a plethora of genres and styles, from collaborations with world musicians and beatboxers, to concertos and solo performances. Selaocoe combines virtuosic performance with improvisation, singing and body percussion, and is devoted to composing works and curating programmes that highlight the links between Western and non-Western musical traditions, broadening the horizons of classical music to reach a more diverse audience.
