About Us
uMongo Msindo is a project that aims to take audiences and musicians on a journey through the unique musical heritage of KwaZulu Natal – focusing on spotlighting its indigenous instrument players. This province bears a good supply of historical gems in some of the most rural areas of the region. These men and women trace the history, and our work (as cultural researchers and practitioners) is to tell these stories that may otherwise be forgotten. The spread of these musicians across the province brings forward an impressive additional reading of KZN’s historical micro-narratives on musical instruments, history, and usages.
