about

Mabolel Rock (South Africa), home of legendary Lakwan the Nile crocodile, is the chosen location for a live spontaneous improvisation-the support act for a dusk chorus concert. On arrival, we found a pod of Hippopotami basking upstream in the waters of the Limpopo River. Calmly sitting on Mabolel Rock, looking out across the River to Botswana, I beckoned the Hippopotami closer with the “Call of the Hippo” The small audience on the bank were captured and immersed within this special moment revealing how music can transport us into undefinable realms. My aim to connect with nature saw me overcome with a profound sense of calm and being at one with the river environment revealing how vital and connected sound is in our world.
