A comprehensive audio and video documentary of Parade, an encounter of musicians from different parts of the world in Linz / Austria, has been released. The CD/DVD package will be out after presentations in Linz on 8 - 10th December.

Simonga-Maliko, the 30 head strong Ngoma Buntibe group of musicians from Siachilaba and Sinazongwe on both sides of Lake Kariba have been the core ensemble of this very special festival.

“I enjoyed the whole spectacle of local Austrians being exposed to all sorts of different musical experiences that even people in the home countries of some of the performers never get to hear. It was an amazing juxtaposition of cultures” (Annette Eastwood, Harare / Zimbabwe). Find more feedback on the Parade blog: www.lin09.at/parade-blog
