Hailing from Zimbabwe, the all-woman a cappella quartet Nobuntu is recognized internationally for its sparkling energy, breathtakingly rich voices, and inventive performances that cover the gamut from gospel to traditional Zimbabwean songs to Afro-jazz. Augmented only using minimal percussion, they emphasize pure voices, authentic dance movements, and the use of traditional instruments.
The word Nobuntu is an African concept that values humility, love, unity, and family from a woman’s perspective. This group represents a new generation of young singers who celebrate and preserve culture, beauty, and heritage through art. Their performances transcend racial, tribal, religious, gender, and economic boundaries to communicate directly with the audience’s human soul.
