On Sunday 5 March the Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concerts, in association with the City of Cape Town, will welcome the multi-award-winning artist Mandisi Dyantyis to the stage.

The South African trumpeter and vocalist will transform the Kirstenbosch Summer Sunset Concerts stage into a platform of Afro-soul and jazz on the Sunday evening.

He will perform some of his favourite tracks from his debut album, Somandla, and his South African Music Awards-winning album, Cwaka. Dyantyis will lead on vocals and trumpet, accompanied by his back-up singers, Buddy Wells on saxophone, Lonwabo Mafani on piano, Kevin Gibson on drums, and Steve de Sousa on double bass.

As a versatile musician, composer, arranger and producer in jazz, Western Classical and African Indigenous music, Dyantyis has performed with some of the country’s top musicians over the years.

He has travelled the world and graced every important stage in South Africa, sold out every show since 2020, so this is certainly a performance that is not to be missed.

Pack a picnic or pre-order from the Kirstenbosch Tea Room (24 hours in advance) or Moyo restaurant (five days in advance) with all details on the Kirstenbosch website.

Tickets can be booked at www.webtickets.co.za or at the Kirstenbosch ticket office. For more information, visit www.sanbi.org.
