Guided by Cultural Historical Activity Theory and Critical Pedagogy, the stud…
Cultural and Idiomatic Narratives in Maskanda Music
This article examines cultural and idiomatic narratives in South African Indigenous music, with specific reference to Johnny Dimba’s “Dear Msakazi” and Buselaphi’s “Umendo.” The analysis is informed by conceptual metaphor theory (CMT), which conceptualises metaphor not merely as a stylistic or rhetorical device but as a fundamental cognitive and cultural mechanism through which individuals and communities structure experience and produce meaning.…

The research was motivated by a dual purpose: to uncover the profound cultural intersections in South African worship practices and to …

The Quest for Restoration of the African Renaissance through Indigenous African Music and Globalisation
Rooted in the philosophy of Ubuntu, this article contends that the revival of indigenous South African music transcends mere cultural revitalisation; it emerges as a transformative force for community empowerment. Through the cultivation of creativity, the bridging of generational divides, and the nurturing of a profound sense of belonging, Ubuntu reaffirms the intrinsic worth of everyone’s contribution to the collective cultural legacy. The Afri…
Understanding the Importance of Reviving the Forgotten and Marginalised Khoisan Indigenous Music in South Africa
Framed within the Sociomusicology Theory, this article argued that through the revival of Khoisan indigenous music, South Africa can promote social cohesion, bridging gaps between different ethnic groups and creating a more inclusive society. The Khoisan people, also known as Bushmen or San, are one of the oldest indigenous groups in Africa, and their music is an integral part of their identity and history. However, Khoisan indigenous music in So…

South Africa’s music education landscape stands at the intersection of historical legacies, socio-economic disparities, and cultural intricacies, posing formidable challenges for underprivileged and marginalised communities. Despite strides made since the post-apartheid era, high-quality music education remains an elusive pursuit for many aspiring musicians. This study used a qualitative approach to explore and dissect the multifaceted challenges…

The study aims to comprehend the complex interactions between creative arts interventions, cultural contexts, and the dynamics of bullying. By applying CHAT, the research delves into the cultural significance of artistic expressions, shedding light on how these interven…
The Quest for Recognition and Curricularisation of South African Music Education in Basic Education
Framed within curriculum inquiry theory, this article argues for the necessity to merge music curricula with music educator curricula in the existing Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) offered by the South African Department of Basic Education (DBE). Currently, being educated in music does not qualify a graduate to be a music educator, as an additional qualification is necessary. Music-trained educators leaving universities are req…
Indlamu
Even though Indlamu dance has been a central feature of the Zulu nation, few historical studies address the social status of Indlamu. Indlamu has been largely overlooked as an image of Zulu upper-class people, even though the majority of people had ample access to Indlamu. Also, Indlamu is most often associated with Zulu culture untouched by Western influence, probably because it is regarded as a touchstone of Zulu identity. The purpose of this a…
The Role of Amazulu Traditional Attire in the Globalised Fashion Industry
Recently, AmaZulu traditional attire of the Zulu people in South Africa has gained recognition and influence in the globalised fashion industry. As a part of South Africa’s rich cultural heritage, AmaZulu’s traditional clothing reflects the customs, beliefs, and identity of AmaZulu.

Importance of digital skills to South African opera artists to improve their employability
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, digital skills were becoming important for opera artists as technology continues transforming the performing arts industry worldwide. Digital performance in the opera industry emerged as a global phenomenon negatively affecting opera artists’ employability. Like opera artists from other emerging countries, South African opera artists are experiencing high unemployment due to changing industry skills. In the South Afr…
Challenges Experienced by South African Indigenous Musicians
Framed within social constructivism theory, this article argued that government, organisations, and stakeholders could foster and promote collaboration, community engagement, cultural recognition and policy advocacy to address the socio-economic challenges faced by Indigenous African musicians.

Examining the autonomy of Zulu Ingoma from the 1930s to present
It is prudent to highlight that Ingoma has played an essential role in the transformation of amaZulu. The Ingoma’s story is of dramatic socioeconomic changes in Zulu society after the final ‘downfall’ of the independent kingdom. It is the decade in which amaZulu entered the migrant labour system in greater proportions than ever before. As expected from any African society, the narrative for this decade could well be expressed in music, song, danc…

The importance of understanding and making sense of Zulu traditional hymns as a symbol of expressing worship
Singing and understanding Zulu traditional hymns among charismatic churches and gospel groups have become a fundamental worship tool. Zulu traditional hymns are at the centre of Christian lives in South Africa. Singing Zulu traditional hymns ( iCilongo Levangeli ) is predominant for many South African musicians and gospel groups using modern musical styles. However, contemporary churches, musicians and gospel groups tend not to understand the aut…
Employability Challenges Facing Vocal Art Graduates in South Africa
Unemployment has emerged as a global phenomenon that brutally affects young people, irrespective of whether they have academic qualifications, but is more prevalent and predominant in semi-peripheral and peripheral countries. Like graduates from other emerging countries, South African graduates are experiencing unemployment. The issue of unemployment in the performing arts industry has become a matter of great concern. Vocal Art (hereafter VA) gr…
The Cost of Equality
In the past, many South African students found it difficult to pursue higher education due to the high expense of tuition, which also restricted their prospects for development on both a personal and professional level. Fee-free education has helped to level the playing field and provide equal access to education, regardless of an individual’s financial background. Evidently, financially disadvantaged students now have better access to higher edu…
