Join us for an evening of learning and singing traditional songs and dances from South African. Since 2000, WACC founder and director Suzannah Park has had many opportunities to study and perform with Matlakala Bopape, director of Polokwane Choral Society, of Polokwane, South Africa. She has also had the pleasure of learning, teaching and performing with composer/singer/teacher Bongani Magatyana who lives in the Gugulethu Township in Cape Town, South Africa for the past nine years.

Suzannah will just have arrived back state-side from a month of touring and teaching with these two colleagues and friends in South Africa and will share songs, dances and stories from the singing tour.
