"The Xiquitsi Choir and Orchestra will present their best performance with a maturity that reflects the project's 10 years of existence. This series will bring together four students from the Cantate music teaching project, developed by Kulungwana in the provinces of Cabo Delgado and Nampula, who will travel to Maputo to interact with Xiquitsi students and to participate in this series of concerts," the concert programme reads.
This last series of concerts brings together renowned Mozambican artists from diverse musical genres on the same stage who will give colour and life to the concert that closes the tenth season of Xiquitsi, creating a perfect symbiosis between Mozambican light and classical music, with guest artists playing and singing with the Xiquitsi orchestra and choir.
Over 10 years now, Xiquitsi has been a notable stage for social insertion, learning and socialisation, where children, teenagers and young people get a start in the world of music and gain life skills.
The Xiquitsi project currently has around 250 students distributed among violin, viola, cello, double bass, oboe, clarinet, percussion and singing classes.
