REVEL IN ALL THE KINDS OF DANCING SHOES.

KUTAPIRA: 

What started twenty years ago as a youth world music initiative has metamrphosized into the crowd-pleasing percussion explosion known today as Kutapira! The name Kutapira means “sweetness” in the Shona language of Zimbabwe, a fitting title for a band that plays a fusion of Zimbabwean marimba with West African and Afro-Cuban percussion and more. This highly stylized marimba fusion consists of some contemporary Zimbabwean tunes but the majority of the music is composed and arranged by Kutapira and inspired by genres like Reggae, Funk, Latin Jazz, Samba, Cumbia, Disco and Hip Hop.

The transferal of energy between the audience and the performer is palpable and it often grows into something that is more than the sum of it’s respective parts. This is the magic and the joy that Kutapira shares with audiences and it’s the reason why the band has lasted for so long. From toddlers to young adults to senior’s, from elementary school students to people with disability’s to her majesty the queen of England... this unique and original fusion has been able to ignite something within people of all ages and from all walks of life.
