Concert The Horn Of Hope by Vee Mukarati

Vee Mukarati and The Horn Of Hope is a group of musicians playing original compositions and arrangements by singer and saxophonist Vimbai Mukarati. Originally from Zimbabwe, he is strongly influenced by his childhood in the country's complex socio-political atmosphere and by his life as an immigrant in Europe in recent years. His music cuts across different genres, producing a sound that blends Afrojazz, soul, Afrobeat and reggae. Since 2021, he has been enrolled at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne, where he studies jazz singing.
