Rene Tshiakanyi live in concert
Don't miss popular musician Rene Tshiakanyi who will be performing at the Catalina Theatre for one night only.
DURBAN’s Catalina Theatre will play host to charming French-Congolese singer, Rene Tshiakanyi and friends for one night only, Friday 29 November starting at 7pm.
He will be using this opportunity to shoot a live DVD.
Tshiakanyi is a familiar presence at elegant dining establishments in and around greater Durban. Singing both in French and English, he describes his music and compositions as a mixture of classic pop; RnB; reggae and Zouk (which is a mixture of French and Caribbean music). His sound is undeniably distinctive. Many of his songs are thoughtful and reflective – about love, emotion and passion in all its guises. Increasingly though, his new music talks about pertinent global issues: the crisis in the Congo, the plight of refugees; the quest for peace and freedom in Africa and the need to be the voice for the voiceless sufferers of violence. He is an active ambassador for orphans and vulnerable children who are victims of the ongoing unrest and violence in Eastern Congo.
Rene will be promoting his album entitled: Now that I am free. He will be joined on stage by Richard Ellis on drums and Stella Martin, co-principal oboist with the KZNPO.
Tickets are R100 show only and R160 for the show and dinner. Book at Computicket / 0861 915 8000.
