SUMMARY:Jazz Night with Khaya Mahlangu
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;\n\nThe Alliance Française du Cap and Jazz in the Nativ
 e Yards present Khaya Mahlangu.\n\nWith a career spanning over four decade
 s\, jazz composer and saxophonist Khaya Mahlangu is a veteran adept at pla
 ying different instruments\, with a pennywhistle being the first instrumen
 t he played when he was around seven years old.\n\nGrowing up in Soweto du
 ring the heady days of apartheid\, music proved to be a welcome escape for
  Mahlangu. He had a “brief spell” with The Beaters\, a popular disco b
 and formed in 1968\, and later changed its name to Harari. The band paved 
 the way for numerous bands\, notably Sakhile\, a trailblazing group he for
 med together with Don Laka and the late Sipho Gumede.\n\nNot the one to be
  defined by one skill\, Mahlangu plays the trumpet\, flute and piano but t
 he saxophone is his primary instrument. He was part of a jazz-fusion outfi
 t\, Spirit Rejoice\, which incorporated the late Bheki Mseleku and once ag
 ain\, Sipho Gumede. He describes Spirit Rejoice as “one of the first sem
 inal bands to come out of this country”. The band backed for Joy\, a pop
 ular vocal group of Paradise Road fame.\n\nWhen he is not on stage\, he sp
 ends his time at the University of the Witwatersrand giving saxophone less
 ons to Music students.\n\n“If I slow down\, I am going to die. I have a 
 zest for life\,” he says.\n\nHe has also devoted his time with the Gaute
 ng Jazz Music Orchestra\, where he was musical director between 2009 and 2
 014.\n\nBOOKING ON QUICKET : https://qkt.io/Uflhs1\n\nFEES: R150 / R100 St
