MNDEBELE, KHOZA, FAKU, MNISI & PAUL VAN KEMENADE QUINTET
Sonti Mndebele-vocals, Bheki Khoza-guitar, Feya Faku-bugle, Sydney Mnisi-tenor saxophone, Paul van Kemenade-alto saxophone, Louk Boudesteijn-trombone, Jeroen van Vliet-piano, keyboards, Wiro Mahieu-double bass, electric bass, Pieter Bast-drums
The quintet of Paul van Kemenade (founded in 1982) has always showed great interest in crossover styles. They play with pop groups, classical ensembles, brass bands and youth orchestras with the fierce, melodious alto saxophone of Paul van Kemenade as the ‘centersound’. Since 1994, a passion for South African music was added and performed in an extensive setting.
