Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>Mozambican musician Matchume Zango and Belgian videographer Walter Verdin this evening (02-03) present a video concert called \u2018Timbila Tracks\u2019 at the Franco-Mozambican auditorium, starting at 7:00 p.m..<\/p>\n

The concert is a live, solo performance by Matchume Zango, during which he sings and plays a variety of traditional and contemporary percussion instruments over video compositions by Verdin.<\/p>\n

\u2018Timbila Tracks\u2019 is an audio-visual patchwork of traditional music and new technologies which shows Matchume in various locations in Maputo and, among others, legendary timbila master Vena\u0302ncio Mbande who passed away in 2015, filmed at his house in Zavala.<\/p>\n

After tonight\u2019s concert, tomorrow, March 3, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Verdin and Zango present in the same auditorium a workshop for music and audio-visual professionals about the process of making \u2018Timbila Tracks\u2019.<\/p>\n

Matchume Zango has been dedicated to Mozambican traditional music and dance since he was six years old. His parents and grandparents are from Zavala in Inhambane province, which is the home of the Timbila de Mozambique tradition. Inspired by the musical and percussion tradition, Matchume began playing, studying music and producing traditional instruments such as timbila, mbira, xitende and djembe.<\/p>\n

In the last 15 years, Matchume has travelled around the world as a performing musician and composer of traditional, experimental and fusion music. As an ambassador for Mozambican music and culture, he has taught and directed artistic and cultural projects in Africa, Europe and America. He has a master\u2019s degree in musical performance from Cape University.<\/p>\n

Walter Verdin (\u00b01953, Belgium) is a video composer who has worked all kinds of disciplines throughout the years (with music, theatre, dance, film, video art, musical theatre, documentaries, …) He has a rich curriculum with numerous projects with famous artists as Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, Steve Paxton, Wim Vandekeybus, Guy Cassiers,… and has founded several associations, such as Videolepsia in which he now produces his own artistic work. He created his first video in 1978. Videorhythmics (1984) was his first video concert: live music on the beat of rhythmically edited single screen videos. It would become his \u2018trademark\u2019. Since his first trip to Africa in 1993, he created a great deal of projects with African artists. After XAfrika, a video and music project about Mandinka music, he started with a series of workshops, brought artists from all kinds of disciplines and cultures together under the name Trancemediamix and created with Matchume Zango the Timbila Tracks project. Timbila music will again be the starting point for a new audio-visual concert Mgodo Tracks, creation in 2019. All his work is multidisciplinary. The interaction between video, dance and music, moving image and sound, forms the constant topic in his work.<\/p>\n
