The first reaction from people when told that the vuvuzela can make music is to laugh. When you have heard the vuvuzelas on TV the idea that they could be used to make music is quite funny.   Then comes the curiosity… could this be true ? You can decide for yourself…

The Vuvuzela Orchestra uses an age old African music making system where each person has only one note to play. Each of those notes combines with the others in the group to create melodies and chords…

“Ntaka yaka ngoboya benye”. “When you make your nest you use other birds feathers…” goes the saying.    In other words, to become human you need the help and the example of other humans. “In music we grow human”.
