Kabantu

Kabantu is a quintet from Manchester who have appeared at the BBC Proms. They describe their performances as 'unravelling new marriages of music from around the globe to celebrate the space where different cultures collaborate'. 'Kabantu' meaning 'of the people' stems from the South African philosophy of Ubuntu: "I am what I am because of who we all are". This is autonomous music bridging countries and cultures. This band has it all, from singing in Zulu, professional level whistling, and amazing instrumental playing. Truly a win for all ages.
