    News - Past & Recent

    The piece below was written specifically as part of a CD project for my very first fundraiser for CROW. I felt it was important to try to write something in Zulu since the funds were going to help animals in South Africa. I recorded it again a few years ago at The Power Station/Berklee NYC. My Berklee colleagues Casey Scheuerell and Joe Galeota played percussion. I was fortunate enough to meet Paul Simon's bassist, Bakithi Kumalo, who helped me find 4 women singers from the Lion King. A wonderful NY jazz singer, Nicole Zuraitis, and I joined them on vocals. As you can see it was a blast. No-one could stop dancing!

    Ngizohamba

    An homage to the animals in Zulu.


    Lyrics:


    Ngizohamba ngezinyawo ukuyobingelela

    Izindlovu, amadube, amabhubesi, nezimpala


    Woza, Woza uhambe nami 


    Woza, Woza uhambe nami


    (Translation) I Will Go


    I will go by foot to greet

    The elephants, zebras, lions, impala.

    Come with me 

    Come with me
