MoZuluart is a project that was founded by Roland Guggenbichler (Austria), Vusa Mkhaya Ndlovu (Zimbabwe), Blessings Nqo Nkomo (Zimbabwe), Ramadu (Zimbabwe).
It is a fusion of traditional zulu music with classical music based mainly on Mozart compositions, hence the name MoZuluArt. The musicians try to fuse these two music styles in a way that leaves room to the original song and style and not absorb a lot from it so that it stays with it´s authenticity.
Music is and has always been a unifying factor around the world, bringing together people from different backgrounds, races, ethnicities and of course, traditions. It is through music that people get to know and understand other cultures and develop a liking to adopt into that culture. If Mozart was still alive he would have been proud to see two cultures meeting together to celebrate his music and bringing it to an audience that never imagined that one day they will be sitting, nodding their heads and tapping their feet to his compositions. Young as it is this project is set for a big future, this has been evidenced by the positive critics they are getting from music critics, fans, and the cooperate world alike.
