The students of the Mungu School of Music of the United Methodist Church in Malhangalene will present their third classical guitar recital on June 21, at 5:00 p.m..

This initiative aims to set up a means of cultural exchange between students and the public; to allow an exchange of experience between students and musicians in general; promote classical guitar practice as well as to contribute to the promotion of peace in Mozambique through the arts, in general and music, in particular. The recital will offer interpretations of European composers’ works for guitars.

The session, led by Professor Queirós Júlia, will also include the participation of invited students from the School of Communication and Arts of the Eduardo Mondlane University and the Portuguese School of Mozambique – Centre for Teaching and Portuguese Language.
