“It isn’t merely the grace and power of their dancing or the beauty of their singing that rivets the attention, but the sheer joy and love that emanates from their being.” – Paul Simon
Paul Simon’s album Graceland made them famous. They’ve won fans around the world for their exuberant, joyful performances. They’ve collected four Grammy® Awards. And now Ladysmith Black Mambazo is coming back to Orchestra Hall! The South African ensemble’s nine powerful singers express their harmonies in English and Zulu, accompanied by tongue clicks, snaps, whistles, kicks, hops and waves, and will make you feel like dancing with Diamonds on the Soles of (Your) Shoes.
