Simphiwe Dana released the much-anticipated CD/DVD project ‘The Simphiwe Dana Symphony Experience.’
Being the first of its kind, both in South Africa and on the continent, the Symphony Experience is a Pan-African project that demonstrates Dana’s acute ability to reflect the times with a timeless cultural masterpiece. Simphiwe Dana’s commitment to engage the African continent and Diaspora is a testament to her social consciousness in leaving a legacy that transcends beyond race and social-economic contexts.
To further anchor this vision and walk the talk, Dana invited Asa of Nigeria, Concha Buika of Equatorial Guinea descent to join her on the Symphony stage.
The songstress was generous in the recording, taking her fans back to some of the songs from her past albums like Zandisile and Ndiredi which appeared on her debut album and a live rendition of the controversial Sizophum’Elokishini from the One Love Movement. She also took the time to finally share her inspiration and rationale behind the song.
The depth of Dana’s music is powerful and infuses inspiration across audiences and genders. The Symphony Experience has received global acclaim and South Africans can expect a sensational performance (packaged into this timeless DVD/CD Combo) by Dana featuring a 60-piece orchestra, a 30-piece choir, and a 10-piece dance ensemble, guaranteed to leave you with an unforgettable contemporary sound also featuring a debut performance by the rising muso, Msaki.
