The king of amapiano, real name Kabelo Motha, releases this single ahead of the first Red Bull Symphonic in South Africa with Ofentse Pitse and the Symphonic Orchestra.. The event is set to take place at the Lyric Theatre in Gold Reef City, Johannesburg, where attendees can expect to hear iconic tracks such as “Khusela” and “Imithandazo” reimagined in a symphonic arrangement that highlights their addictive rhythms and melodies.
A 33-piece Symphonic Orchestra and Vocal Octet ensemble of exceptional musicians will bring to life conductor Ofentse Pitse’s vision for the orchestral element of the performance – one that dismantles barriers as it catapults toward limitless boundaries.
Excitement for the show was so intense that tickets sold out within five hours of the announcement, forcing organizers to create a second date for the Symphonic Orchestra.
Red Bull Symphonic featuring Kabza De Small with Ofentse Pitse and the Symphonic Orchestra takes place on June 8 and 9, 2024, at the Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City in Johannesburg.
