Songs of Migration (musical)

Two South African legends bring the Artscape Opera stage alive in a musical tribute to the great songs of migrants across the African continent. Songs of Migration, fresh off the stages of Washington DC, London and Amsterdam. It is a musical adventure of Southern Africa’s cries of joy, love, conflict, resistance, sorrow, exile; oppression; patriotism; victory and freedom. Compiled by internationally acclaimed trumpeter, composer and lyricist Hugh Masekela, and starring alongside him Sibongile Khumalo, they take centre stage as lead storytellers and singers. This touching tribute, written and directed by award-winning director James Ngcobo, has been described as a production that takes one on a journey of every possible emotion.
